This MT Lion was just caught in Missouri. This is now the 23rd or 24th wild MT Lion confirmed in Missouri in the last 10 years.

I was told a mountain lion had been seen in the area a couple weeks before I got there.

That's around the 7th or 8th one I can remember hearing about in the last year.... Even if there is no breeding population there (supposedly they are all dispersing males), something tells me that the breeding population is getting closer!

Object to logging?
Try using plastic toilet paper!

You allowed to set up trail cams back in the boonies?
