My neighbor has had a cougar in her backyard twice, that she knows of and has seen with her own eyes. It attacked her huge dog, but luckily the dog lived. Both sightings were right after a big snowstorm. Just across the canyon from us a cougar was found in a guy's garage in the MIDDLE of the day, in the middle of a suburban neighborhood, not a ranch. He had left the garage open, and went out later to find a cougar...can't imagine my reaction to that one. I think it'd make me even more skittish than I already am. Animal Control did catch and release (far away)a cougar just after that, but I hear they can make it back to their own territories pretty quickly. <BR/><BR/>Prior to moving to UT, we lived in Colorado for four years, and there were at least five attacks per year that we heard about while there (several were published in Reader's Digest). They started to teach kids that, unlike most animals, even bears, cougars are NOT afraid of humans and will attack to eat you. Yikes. I hate to be a freak-a-zoid about things, but cougar sightings in my neighborhood really freak me out. <BR/><BR/>I am all for protecting docile animals, but not killers. Go hunters! (And Amanda...ah! I know we've talked of riding horses with the kids. I am sad that Fancy is gone. How are the kid's coping with all this drama and trauma?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702380.post-53675531019615420972008-01-11T17:20:00.000-08:002008-01-11T17:20:00.000-08:00The juxtaposition of the disney princess birthday ...The juxtaposition of the disney princess birthday post and the cougar post were almost too much for me.solilunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02053517814354369236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702380.post-22594351620203599242008-01-11T08:11:00.000-08:002008-01-11T08:11:00.000-08:00Finally, Sarah, I'm breaking the silence.

I've peaked at your blog sporadically over the last couple of years, only you never knew it 'cause I've never commented (I'm still very much alive, by-the-way), but this post necessitated a comment. That story is un-be-lieveable! (The pictures are great, too!) I had to share with Nate who had me send the link to his work so he could share with an NRA-member friend and co-worker at work who now wants to meet the cougar-killer.

We have a cougar who has shown himself around the house on occasion - and I'm always a bit freaked out when I am up in the hills mountain biking alone. Now, I think I'm more freaked out. I have not seen or heard anything being killed by the cat in the neighborhood, but here is always a first time. Guess I'll be on the lookout a bit more.
