Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :OI can't find the link but a cow was apparently killed by a lion in the SW corner of Wisconsin in the last few days. It was fairly close to the Kickapoo Valley, and as a fly fisherman who frequents that area I pay close attention to things that could make a meal of me. A fly rod doesn't offer much protection from a big kitty.
On a positive note, the fact that they are seeing lions in areas where they were believed to be extinct it a pretty cool thing, or it's just some idiot that had a pet he/she couldn't take care of. I like to believe that they're making a comeback. Have another one that's been spotted on the North Shore of Superior, outside of Duluth Minnesota. Another place I fish a lot. Maybe I should look into a pistol of somesort like the Alaskan Guides carry.
Good Luck,
Jay
