I really don't understand the sarcasm from all the skeptics concerning panthers. They have been roaming around Amite County, Miss. for at least 25 years that I know of. Ask any wildlife agent in that area. I watched one for an entire season (85/86). She would bring her litter of cubs to a beaver pond every morning to drink and then slip away. By the way , the fine back then was about $25K for killing or harming one...

There are several CONFIRMED published sightings of cougars in Louisiana.

None of which have been black.

Looks like a black house cat to me. IF it is NOT a house cat, it is an escapee.


Anyone wanna bet some salty cash on it?

That would be correct. No sightings of 'black' ones...

My dad and uncles have seen them around the bayous near where they grew up in Palmetto. I also have two buddys that have seen them once back around Praire Ronde. I myself cant claim to have seen them, but I have seen trail cam pics.

Are you talking about black ones. Cuz I think there are just as many "confirmed" sightings of big foot. I think we all know there are cougars in Louisiana. But never ever anywhere on this continent has there been a confirmed picture of a black cougar. I don't think there is such thing. A girl I went to school with had a pet jaguar and it was black. But not a cougar.

Last year there was an article in the Lake Charles American Press about a wildlife agent that responded to a call of one that had attacked a horse at someones home in GrandLake. They had pictures of the horse and several accounts of the incident by the owners of the horse and the wildlife agent.

Not sure if the same one or not, but someone called about livestock that was killed by a 'wildcat' and the story went to the newspaper and everyone was bashing LDWF for not doing a thorough investigation. The head of the Wildlife Department wrote the newpaper a letter saying there was absolutely no need for an investigatio because the pictures told the entire story. The cow or horse got tangled up in barbed wire and it bled to death once it freed itself. The headlines were something like 'wildcat on the loose'!

I 100% believe in cougars in Louisiana no doubt.

Whenever someone tells me of a panther sighting, I listen, however, as soon as anyone mentions a BLACK panther it completely discredits the story
