Lions Everywhere

[Epaphroditus]

One took out a dog out of Chico in upper Bidwell park. Lab/pit mix was found in pieces and the cat is still on the move.

Back in ~1976 in Live Oak we found a print in the mud that turned out to be a cougar and boy was everyone very excited. No one expected to ever see a cougar ... now they are everywhere!

Those things are fun! I've got a big bag full. Ready for Cougarpocalypse!

Anyone see this?

Maybe 'they' can do what was done in Davis to help the poor little toads ... build a "puma chute" under the freeways! Or not.

Had a mountain lion walk across a oat hay field tuesday evening after killing a chicken in the neighbor backyard.
DFW showed up and after some talking with the guy it seems they are everywhere.We are about 1 mile outside of Santa Rosa city limits.Had one cat on mark west springs road 1/4 mile off of hwy 101 and another at the spring lake parking lot both hit by cars.
Warden uses a shotgun shell with a M80 firecracker in it to harass the big cats away.I left for dinner before getting a look at the ammo but he said they run $4 a shot and are sold out of Florida.

Lyn, you must be neighbors with my fishing buddy Jeff!

I'll tell you one thing!! If this drought continues, things will get way way worse than they are now.

When the water gets so scarce that ALL the animals have to share one spot, the lions will slaughter deer. When the deer are scarce, the lions will be on the livestock and when they are gone do to ranchers selling the stock off because of no feed, the lions will be on your pets and humans.

Thats why they call it a food chain.

Except for my horses and maybe some sheep (for personal consumption) I will be selling all my livestock off if this drought continues.

Lion, bear and coyote sightings will be all to common in heavily populated areas.

I was told beef ranches are selling cattle already they can afford to feed them.
When one of those hsus members are attacked by a lion or bear they will wish for a hunter but no one will be around to help.Then who will be left to protect them from the animals not me f... them all.

I see coyotes all the time on base and it's smack dab in the middle of Los Alamitos. but the other day I saw one off the fwy and I have never seen one there before.

You're down south. Big difference up here. My hills should be green right now but I still have summer grass that has nothing in it for the animals.

Only good news is it will make for good shed hunting

I've been getting more lions than deer on my trail cameras. 8 lions on 6 cameras in 4 days.

Here's a little timeline;

The bounty was taken off Mountain lions in 1967.

Four (4) depredation permits were issued in 1972. That number skyrocketed to 328 by 1994 (all hunting lions was stopped in 1990).

From 1972 thru 2009 a total of 5551 depredation permits were issued. I don't think this includes lions that were killed by landowners before a permit could be issued, or by state trappers. And we know SSS's weren't counted

I know of one (1) state trapper (houndsman) that kills between 100-200 lions per year for the state. He is paid very well to do it.

I say we move ALL these lions to their historical territory in L.A. and San Francisco. These are the people making the laws (prop 117 ended lion hunting by a vote of the people based on emotion and NOT sound science) but they don't live with the problem!

Prop 117 also allocated 30 million dollars a year to study the problem and "save" the lions. That's $720 Million of your tax payer dollars so far with MUCH more to come. Where has that money gone???

[VaderSpade]

My first lion hunt. I was 9 or 10. Good lion.

[taperxz]

I've been seeing lion tracks lately. What's even stranger is that I have about 30 deer hanging around the house and livestock.

That means one thing, lion encounters are soon to follow.

[katranch]

They are everywhere. Shoot 'em in the guts

So your into animal cruelty ? You know an animal can live several days in pain after they've been gut shot.

[gregskin]

My little son and I would like to find a few rabbits. How about somewhere around Jackson or calaveras mabey even fort Bragg. We would sure appreciate some help
