    Not good. Poor thing.

    “Mountain lions aren’t like their African lion cousins. They don’t travel in packs or prides. Instead they tend to be solitary creatures.

    When a problem lion is trapped and relocated to a new area in the remote woods, the problem is there is usually a resident lion already living in the area. Unless the new lion is strong enough to drive out the resident lion it will probably be killed or forced to roam and seek its own territory.

    The Department of Fish and Wildlife (DWF) has established a policy where it won’t relocate a mountain lion, but if it poses a threat to humans or kills livestock the DFW will destroy the lion."

    This is a cartoon lion so no worries, but still a sad thought to think of.

    Shouldn’t they be assuming that the bear would be a possible danger to the kids as well?

    They were in a remote area before you put a camp there!

    I repeat – There are no mountain lions in The Poconos. There are no mountain lions in Pennsylvania. There are no mountain lions east of the Mississippi River with the exception of the Florida Panther in south Florida.

    Cubby doesn’t need to be tagged. Leave him alone.

    I listened to a story by a gal that did mountain lion rescue regarding open grazing cattle. The organization paid ranchers for cattle that were attacked, in return that the ranchers did not hunt down the mountain lion. After a couple of years, the killing of cattle stopped. Thereafter, the herd was essentially protected by the mountain lion in the area since it kept other, younger, mountain lions away. The basis of the original killing was that the resident mountain lion was young and used the cattle for practice hunting. Once it was older and more capable, it did not hunt cattle.
