I recently sold my land in Sawyer County. I had heard several folks talking about cat sightings but didn't know any of them well enough to know if it was BS.
Your encounter periphrastically made me think of this so I had to share it with a friend. Never fails to make me laugh:
Nice bruin,over 400# way cool, I take it no season for kitties? Or is Wisc.like all other Mid+Easteren states that say they don't exist
No season. Wisconsin DNR finally admits they are here, just no breeding pairs.
Cougars do roam. One was hit by a car a few years ago - in Connecticut. They checked his DNA and were astonished to find he was native to the Dakotas. He's traveled due east over a thousand miles, passing heaven knows how many farms, houses, and towns.
