They finally admit it. My family here in Wisconsin has been seeing them for years. One of my dad’s friends had a photo he took less than ten feet away of a black panther but weird guys came and took them and said they don’t exist. Everyone around here already knew they did.

This latest picture of a Wisconsin cougar doesn’t come as any surprise to the Eastern Puma Research Network.

In August 2004, a trail camera set out by a retired Wisconsin DNR officier to “catch a suspected cougar several people had seen in Morris Township of Shawano County” accomplished its goal.

Confirmed evidence of yet another puma was caught on film near Burlington in early May 2008.

Neither of these photos were acknowledged by Wisconsin DNR, whose officials didn’t want the public to know about them, since trained observers were the witnessess.

Let’s hope the outcome is much better than the Arizona jaguar tragedy.

It doesn’t surprise me at the Minnesota Zoo they have mountain lions in the native species section of the zoo and with all the reports of them popping up out east I don’t see why they wouldn’t be in WI too, I actually didn’t know they weren’t supposed to be in the wild in WI anymore to be honest.
