Cougars loose in Chicago, Scottsdale AZ

On the loose in Scottsdale, AZA cougar on the loose in Chicago today met its unfortunate end, poor thing. Was it stalking an epicurean meal, or lost in a cement labyrinth?

My parents live in Scottsdale, Arizona. Not long ago, they were overjoyed to find a cougar lounging on the wall of their front porch. They called it a puma. They shot theirs, too, and these photos are the result. Click on one for a slide show.

    Now I see why so many people report seeing cougars or mountain lions every year. Turns out the people are just dumb. That is clearly a bobcat…notice the bob tail? Someone should be able to figure that one out even without knowing about pointed ears and spots on a bobcat.
