10gaugemag,

South of you down in north central arkansas, Ark. fish & game informs us that we have----------> 2 laf , it's on their web page. So if by chance anybody up your way ask let them know the state of Arkansas has 2.

Hey you ever hears any rumors of wolves up your way?
Some Missouri guys on LongRangeHunting website say there are wolves there, a lot of wilderness up there.

No wolves that I am aware of but my buds dad said they saw one back in the 80s while running coyote hounds.

I have no doubt we have a few lions in the state.

My pard who has done a bunch of coon hunting and is pretty fearless in the dark had something making a ruckus around him one morning in the dark. He has no doubt it was a cat, growling and so on. Didn't like him being there one bit.

I went looking for a video of old Missouri, it was old-timey folks living out in rural areas. Some history outfit filmed it in the 70's.

Had some old Fox/coyote hunters who spoke of their dogs getting after a wolf here & there, said they'd find their dogs way over in the next county all beat up.

You're friend sounds brave.

This one?

A lot of the old timers we ran coyotes with called em wolves but were generally referring to coyotes.

Fun times but too many roads and houses now. Hounds get ran over and people don't like your hounds running across their land.

Wanna talk about seeing some big deer. Saw some dandies pushed out of the brush when the hounds would run a coyote through a patch of timber.

Hoglegs3006, glass every inch of ground you can see, then glass it again. You have received some good information.

You found it Hoss, I took their words at face value, I've heard/read coyotes called brush-wolves many times.

There are a couple of guys on LongRangeHunting site saying they've seen tracks and heard wolves in Missouri. Don't remember the region.

I watched the long version, maybe an hour & half

Well guys I really appreciate all the information and photos y'all have shared. Hopefully I get a little bit of luck and get a shot at a cougar.

Judman, that wall mount is very nice! Looks great. My girlfriend wants a pet cat, I told her the only cat we are getting is a cougar hung on the wall haha.

Ol' Mike, I have seen that same NW wild and free video. It's a good one. I really like that YouTube channel. I'll be hunting with the trusty Ol' 30-06. Allot of people seem to think they are so easy to kill but I disagree. They seem to be very tough animals and not to be taken lightly.
