The unit I hunt yearly has a serious issue with lions. Funny thing, is you never see the dang things. However, the DOW says they are putting emphasis on reducing the lions numbers.
I hunted 4th season this year with two different fresh snows, saw lion tracks both mornings coming out of trails I hike into and they continued down the road. A couple years ago I had hiked into a bluff and stayed until dark. A few minutes before I decided to call it quits, I had that eerie feeling something was watching me. I doubt I was alone because of what I was able to confirm this past hunting season.

Supposedly the Salida is being hit hard by lions.
Hey guys, start attending these meetings and you can find this stuff out.

Where is this deer decline everybody is speaking of? in CO unit 55 where I live/hunt I see deer all the time. You gotta be careful driving the highway from gunny to crested butte in the evening, especially in winter as they are all over the place in the valley. So because you see deer all the time, there's no decline... Gotcha'. Tanner

Speaking of lions. I was privy to a picture taken of 3 mountain lions south of Idaho Springs, CO. Three is something to see in one picture. The rest of the story is that there were three more on the hill on the opposite side of the road. That picture you could only see three tails moving into the brush. We have had warnings of cats all around the schools in our district and scores of cat pictures have made Facebook in our area. That's a lot of cats!
