Here is the one I read, not sure if it is still relevant or not. It was actually 2017 so not sure what became of the cats.

No if you ask anybody there’s black ones roaming all over even though no black cougar has even been seen as far as I know.. I could swear I saw a brown one when I was about fifteen I can play it back in my head and still can’t think of anything else with that tail..

I don't know how old you are, but there was one that came through Bulloch County in the early 90s while I was living there. He had a collar and the DNR tracked him and he was removed.

There are now two confirmed females north of the Caloosahatchee Nick. Maybe one is a kitten from a couple of years ago...they did see her with two.

That was a male cat from Texas that had been released near Live Oak Florida, one of a number, to see if the habitat could support a population of Florida Panthers. It spent a good bit of time on Ft. Stewart. One was over in the SWGA area between the Flint and the Chattahoochee. It was caught by DNR after a short while and taken back to the Live Oak area.

That was the first female documented, there was another one with on kitten in either 19 or 20, I can not remember.

My concern is all these hunters that are apparently afraid of their own shadows in the woods and see a wandering young male and take a shot, just like the one killed up West Point way a number of years back.

They're out there, alright. How many hunters have seen a skunk while hunting? Been hunting nearly 50 years and have seen only 1 skunk in
the woods. Smelled quite a few, but have only seen one while hunting.

That is the SOWEGA cat I was talking about.

Never seen a live skunk in my life I don't think. Seen plenty of dead ones on the road though. Been in the woods since I was big enough to walk. They are a lot smaller than mountain lions though.
Just wondering, of all the "black panther sightings" does anyone ever think to go to where they saw it and look for prints? A good print would be a pretty good confirmation of a cat for sure and a good indication of size.

I've seen hundreds or thousands of them. Literally. Very few days around here that I don't see at least one somewhere.

I've seen and killed dozens in a couple of seasons at one of our deer leases in TX.
Land owner ask us to thin them down a bit.
Yup, I got sprayed and learned you are better off just burning your cloths if the yellow juice gets on ya.
A little dab will do you!

Do you have many armadillos? Skunks were very common around here when I was growing up, you saw as many skunks as you did raccoons or possums. Now, there are a rarity and I don't see one dead or alive per year. The armadillos simply out-compete them.
