Minnesota’s Mountain Lion Roadkill
From the Pioneer Press:
Biologists for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources have confirmed that an animal hit and killed Friday night by a motorist near Bemidji was a mountain lion. . . .
Blane Klemek, assistant area wildlife manager for the DNR in Bemidji, said the cat was a sub-adult male 2 to 2 1/2 years old and weighing an estimated 110 pounds. . . .
"All signs seem to indicate that this particular animal was indeed wild but we don't know that for sure," Klemek said.

Them big cats are spreading their territory. Majestic creatures but being stalked by one is probly not so majestic!

nope 110lb house cat! SD said it-getting stalked by one wouldnt be much fun thats for sure
Deer to eat, predators will follow....lions are shy animals, but also very good at living in and around people without being noticed, they usually go unseen, ghosts of the forest....
So true, Idaho, they usually go unseen. The population is growing here in Florida. I've seen plenty of tracks, but I've only actually seen one live cat in the wild.
Naw! Not possible! That is someones pet for sure! Everyone knows that mountian lions stop at the Mississippi, right where that "No Mountian Lions Allowed" sign is. There have been cats in the upper midwest for years and years, the State DNR's just didn't want to admit and scare the general public. Would've made it harder to get wolves reinstated if they would've admitted that lions were there.
I think it is hard for people to believe that they are in some more eastern states. Here in Missouri I have heard stories about farmers plowing fields and finding buried deer. Evidently the Lions kill them and at least partially bury them for later. Anyone ever hear of this?
a little sarcasm there by walt smith. i've seen tracks here in central iowa and several have been hit by cars in iowa. them young males are out looking for their own territory and there is plenty of food with the high deer population.
That is right by my cabin and my deer hunting area, thats probably not to good for the deer population there.
There was one hit by a truck on I-70 near Junction City last year, of course the HYPO & DNR covered it up. I saw them putting it in a clsed van.
