    Smile Mountain Lion/ Cougar caught in Reynolds County Missouri

    A guy from Centerville, Missouri caught a young male cougar/mountain lion recently. There's no denying the presence of them in SE Missouri anymore lol. He had a trap set up and went back like yesterday and found him in it. We've heard of stories of sightings for a long long time in this area.

    A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
    Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

    What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

    MDC has in the pass 5 years agreed that there is indeed cats in SEMO. As well as bears.

    Yeah. I've seen a bear track in Shannon county - the same place my friend and his brother in law found sign and actually HEARD one on the next ridge near them. My wife saw a track in Madison county a long time ago also. She also thought she saw a tail slip through the brush that could very well have been a cougar also.

    Two years ago I saw a large cat (couldn't tell if it was a cougar or a bobcat) hauling off a deer carcass that someone dumped along side the road. My wife and step mother both saw a small black bear crossing the road, so both are definately here in central Mo.
    1 CORINTHIANS 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

    ROMANS 1:16-17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
    For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

    Forget it. Unless of course you have big $$$ or a Government Rep in your back pocket.

    the hunt will be like the sheep out west, $5,000 just to get your name in the box and another $5,000 if you get drawn.

    There numbers are dramatically rising in the West.
    It's no surprise they're migrating Eastward.
