Hi,
On the Wausa Channel 7 News 3/16/2005 A dentist was looking out his back window and video taped a couger roaming thier back field. Channel 7 news did not tell where in Michigan the Couger was sighted,Just that they beleive it was let loose by someone who could not care for it anymore! Yes! Maybe this is the one that has been sighted for years crawling around Wisconsin and he took a trip to the north!

Our family has a place near Triploi Wi. The Cougar has been sighted recently. We have a plaster cast form a paw print form October 2004. It was sighted near the gas station on Hyw 8 within the last 45 days. Im sure someone from the area will get a picture of it in the next few months.

I just talked to a girl in town who works at the Marsfield Mall, said her familly has pictures of the couger in Thorp.It was seen just before the snow melted this spring.I guess the DNR was contacted and they have found paw prints around the area and have some type of devise set up to see if they can get a tracker on it..I guess this cat has a tracking devise on it's neck.They said he has traveled a far distance from his other home.They also know of a second one who has moved this direction also.So keep an eye and ear out.

My mom told me a story that happened on the U.P. backroads between Escanaba, MI and Stephenson, M.I. about 1968. My uncle was driving in the wee hours of the morning when something very large jumped from the trees, on to the hood of his vehicle and then off into the woods. The animal was about the size of a large dog, had four legs, was dark in color and had a tail. It had jumped from up in the branches, not from low on the ground. It had been so heavy that it dented the hood down to the engine. It took my grandfather and uncle half the morning to fix the hood so that the car was drivable. I have heard stories from the old timers in that area about strange large animals that roam on the narrow back roads...they always stressed not to walk them at night. There seemed to be a fear in the stories, more than just that of large cats. What is up there, who knows?!?
