Gayle, might be worth getting an infra-red "trail camera" from Canadian Tir=
e (or elsewhere), $150-ish, it would make a good birthday (Valentine's) pre=
sent...
Just be sure to hide it well from view. My current score is -1.=20

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?=20

I can accept that there have been genuine cougar sightings. Surely some DNR=
 people have had sightings, too, since random people do.=20


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?
