According to a report in the paper last year (I think it was a Sunday 
Journal) there have been about 200 repoprted. My comment was that there were 
probably two hundred more not reported - for example, I did not report  the 
cougar that I saw - and like most people, I don't care whether other people 
believe the sighting or not.  I find it interesting that most people beleive 
bird sightings, but not animals.

Roland.
