What the official told my daughter-in-law today regarding the print examine=
d on Monday was that it was a dog's print, even though he=A0thought it=A0wa=
s some kind of cat's print while he was there. My grandson was really quite=
 upset, saying that he knows=A0what he saw & it was not a dog! Anyway they =
said they need a picture. And truly, understandably so. And perhaps they'll=
 get one. Here's hoping, anyway!

I am thinking that "proof", not just "evidence" is needed for DNR to state,=
 "We have cougars in NS." They clearly cannot say "We don't have cougars in=
 NS", so them not making a commitment is perfectly understandable. I think =
I remember one statement something along the lines of, 'We accept that ther=
e may be cougars in NS.' What else do we expect them to say, given lack of =
proof?

Why do you-all think DNR would be so reluctant to espouse the idea of couga=
rs in NS?=A0Is their reluctance a good thing, since we don't want the kind =
of hysteria that is surrounding coyotes?
