| Regular 178 Mound, MN | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O I 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 |

| Veteran 205 Adel | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O My inlaws live in southern Iowa and have seen these kitty's run thru their pasture (30 acres of unfarmable land is a pasture down there). Kind of scary when the kids are running around outside. |

Expert 893 Livermore, Ca | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O I'm suspicious of that picture. 1) That guy would have to be a super strong to pick that cat up. 2) I don't see a fourth leg. 3) I don't see a entrance or exit wound, there is some discoloration on the fur. But to be dropped after 100 yeards there would have to be a lot of blood. This Mountain Loin get around!! And after a quick search. http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/m/mountainlion.htm Edited by nbo10 2006-02-16 12:11 PM |

| Champion 8936 | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O I looked it up on Snopes, and the picture is real although the description is off on some details. It's a 190lb mountain lion, and the guy in the pic is 5'10". That's not an enormous amount of weight to pick up either. nbo10 - 2006-02-16 12:08 PM I'm suspicious of that picture. 1) That guy would have to be a super strong to pick that cat up. 2) I don't see a fourth leg. 3) I don't see a entrance or exit wound, there is some discoloration on the fur.

Good Luck, Jay Since they stalk and attack from behind, a pistol is just going to cause a little indigestion. You'd be better wearing a face-mask backwards. |

| Master 1468 Tampa, Fl | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O They can be very scary. I was hunting in Arkansas and I was walking back to the camp at night when I heard one scream VERY close. Not a pleasent feeling. |

| Expert 893 Livermore, Ca | Subject: RE: Iowa Corn Fed Mountain Lion :O Yeah, if a big cat is stalking you and is hungry you have very little chance. I'm more worried about big cats than brown bears when I'm in the wild. |
