Actually not really sure if this is okay, but it is on facebook, around Kamloops lake.
(hopefully the link works) for facebook people.

That almost happened to me one time, after I told my wife the story she does not want me to be hunting solo any more

What do you mean by damage! Damage to the deer population? They take their share. That's a popular cat hunting area there as well.

Yep. . .seems as though that cougar did in fact do some damage to that deer

Relax buddy, I guess I chose the wrong title for you?
Just wanted folks to see the link.
And yes, that's what cats do, but, there do seem to be more of them around then years ago...IMO
I know wolves get a lot of the heat, but maybe not all those kills people are running into are from them???
Pretty impressive photo's.

Cougars eat meat. Deer are made of meat, so I'm going with yes for a thousand Alex

Life expectancy of a lion in the wild is up to a dozen years or so. So that equates to roughly 500 deer less in their lifetime.

It's interesting that the antis seem to favour the grizzlies and wolves.

I cant talk for that region, but here in the EK as soon as a cat gets the 110lbs range its dead. Cats take a beating in this region hard.
