RE: mountain lions on the loose!
The reason for them not telling anyone if they did or didnt, is that if they did and someone's kid got ate by a cougar with a radio collar the DNR would catch more hell then they would know what to do with. Do I think theyre releasing them? IDK, but there seems to be way too much talk about it for SOMETHING to have not been done... JMHO

They are all over Southern California, but as most know, due to the anti's in California we can't kill them, even if it is self defense, you had better be able to prove it...

There are eye witnessconfirmed reports of a Mountain lion roaming the Norwalk Wi area. DNR is aware of it.

to be honest never saw one here in Wisconsin and don't think i ever will but i don't really think it will affect it to much as yotes and wolfs would...just another predator IMO

That's funny!
These stories of game dept releases nevr get backed up by any proof.
If it was done "with the public knowledge", there is a huge paper trail - where is it?

Fortunately, bears and mountain lions are not protected in Iowa and can be taken legally. If I see one, I will not hesitate to terminate it.

I don't think the guy was intentionally lying, he was just a victim of an old urban legend that has been spread around since the dawn of time.

Thank you.
I can walk to my stand in piece, rather than pieces.

Take this for what it's worth...but this is an email response to my question of if any mtn lions were released in MN:
The DNR has never released mountain lions or cougars in the state.
