Wow!
Killed Mountain Lion originated in South Dakota
The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection said today that results of genetic tests show that the mountain lion killed in Milford in June made its way to the state from the Black Hills region of South Dakota and is an animal whose movements were actually tracked and recorded as it made its way through Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Certainly adds credibleness to those who claim to have seen, heard, and found evidence of cougars passing thru Tennessee, hey, BSK?
thats amazing. to bad we dont have any here in tn. Who says we don't? Until a few weeks ago, the "official" word was none in CT. Just a matter of time until a free-roaming cougar of wild origin is officially documented in TN. Any time now.

I agree with that. None documented yet, but it will happen.

I just can't imagine why that cat would want to do that. Maybe had relatives in Danbury.
