Dont laugh....

My cousin and I saw a cougar a few years back in a wooded remote area off the Sabine river. He was very quick getting out of sight but there is no mistaking the movement of a cat. I'm sure you know how to tell a cat print from a bear or any canine species - cat prints don't show claws. It is a very eerie feeling. Anyone who has seen one in the wild will not make fun of you. It's unnerving to think that you are not the meanest predator out there. Imagine for a minute what it must be like to be a Masai herdsman in Africa trying to protect his cattle from Lions with a spear. Their main line of defense is a big fence of thorn bushes - I know, I have been watching too much Animal Planet.
