Eh, Cougars don't want old guys. We're in the direction they are trying to stave off going!

Well, unless we're talking really older cougars.... it's all relative, right?

The older toothless cougar's have been seen in bars all over
Horseshoe Bay, Texas, but the good news is that they don't
drink all that much anymore.

Well, he had little trouble chasing off the Comanchero's and whilst the cougars are proving a little more problematic I'm confident they'll soon succumb to Onkels 'persuasive tactics'

Out West in OR we called them mountain lions - (same animal, it has other names too). We lived in the foothills of the coast range there.

I was walking up the 2 mile gravel road to my place and heard something in the brush above me. When I stopped, it stopped, this happened several times. I caught a glimpse of it behind the brush and sure enough I was being stalked and sized up for dinner.

Cougars - Mountain Lions are really big, almost as big as a female African Lion. After that I took our German shepherd with me on those walks.

After that I surely would have had something 9mm or bigger with me in addition to the dog.

Grantsville, Utah is just thirty miles outside of Salt Lake City, and only five miles from the small city of Tooele (pronounced Too-will-a). I have a friend who has a small horse property just outside of Grantsville, and he keeps a couple of loaded shotguns handy for what he calls "kitty problems".
