[QUOTE="Wooden Arrow, post: 5817887, member: 24368"] un-named biologists working in the GSM National Park have been quoted in interviews saying that there is a small population of cougars in the Smokies, anywhere from a dozen to maybe twenty. have seen nothing on whether those are a remnant island population of easterns, released exotic pets, transient cats from out west/up from Florida, or ? there were reliable sightings/tracks found of a female with 2 kittens at her side outside of Chattanooga a few years back. one was photographed (and picture verified by TWRA) outside of Elizabethton a couple of years back. i have found what i'm pretty sure were tracks in streamside sand where one watered in the Pond Mt. wilderness, and a friend found a deer killed there with leaves etc scraped up onto it... i'd give a bundle to actually see one, now that i've seen elk here. :D bucket list stuff right there!
