There is no place to relocate it. All territories are inhabited by other cougars. It would be killed by its own kind. No chance in its starving state.

You have a mindset that you are defending. But, at the same time, you have absolutely no real world experience with wild animals in their natural environment. You know, the kind of place where wild predators would kill and eat you. Go put yourself at risk and, if you survive, come back and tell us about it. Go pet some Grizzlies, swim with Great Whites, etc. Use your imagination. |

It's also illegal to feed wild animals - especially predators, because it becomes very dangerous for people. Also - I believe that wild cats don't eat dead things(like pre butchered meat) usually. They like fresh killed meat. Zoo cats are used to it, but wild is different. I don't know how successful it would be. It would bring in the bears though. |

The point is that once an animal begins to stalk people, it's exhibiting unnatural and dangerous behavior that can become repetitive. Even man-eating lions are considered to be highly dangerous, because such behavior goes against the rules of natural predation. |

When big cats get old, injured or sick, they tend to hunt people. Joggers who like to run in the wilderness are very easy(and stupid!) prey. That trot through the forest may be lovely, but you're putting yourself on the menu - never mind the ones who also think its a good idea to listen to music. Easy targets. Just ask rapists and murderers. |

[QUOTE=Shadedwill;4144761]No they're not. Well, the Florida Cougar is but that's a different subspecies. And they would have shot and killed it themselves. I know because we (when I was in the DNR) had to track and kill one once.[/QUOTE I stand corrected. |
