[QUOTE="EIEIO, post: 104166, member: 1947"] Intersesting evening tonight as I talked and called a few of my neighbors letting them know what all I had going on here. Neighbor to the north of me that's a rancher and also the county sheriff advised me he and his grandson had been down our road about 6 weeks ago and spotted a young mountain lion. He said he just hated to start spreading rumors and such but wished he would have told me about the sighting. He said it was just along our southern most fence line and he sure wished he had a camera with him. He also told me of 2 sightings in the area he had seen in the last few years. Dang shame the conservation department acts like such animals don't exist in these parts even tho' they do. It's kinda making sense now with the first 2 kills on my place being somewhat out in the open and the third nowhere to be found. Conservation officer said a young mountain lion may take some time to get his hunting practices "normal". Two other neighbors also advised me within the last year of a dead deer near my place that had been covered up and they watched every day of how something had been feeding on it. They had observed where it had been dragged from where it was at first and then covered in another location. The sheriff advised me that since I've documented the kills on my place I'm within my rights to shoot a mountain lion if that's whats been here even if it's a protected species due to laws that will protect me from prosecution because it is taking my livestock.
