| Don't know about B&C or Pope & Young, but I believe that SCI has a record book for Mountain Lions from North America.
Even the rocks don't last forever.

| My dad hunts them regularly and has caught several lately. I'd definately say they are a game animal and a cut above typical varmints.
The Hunt goes on forever, the season never ends.
I didn't learn this by reading about it or seeing it on TV. I learned it by doing it.

| My brother and I have booked an elk hunt in Idaho (Frank Church/River of No Return). Outfitter says to get a Mountain Lion tag as well. He says they don't see but a couple a year, but it would be too bad if we saw one and could just "flip it off" rather than hunt it...Shrps74 |

Yeah, I'm with you. The fact that I live where there are no cougars today has nothing to do with it. My father in Southern California in the early 1920s found them to be vermin. My father in the San Fernando Valley, (not all that far south of L.A. today) told me about an old widow woman who owned a chicken farm next to him who heard a tremendous commotion in the coops one night and came out to see w3hat the hullaboo was about -and met a mountain lion. She grabbed up a broom in the hen house and chased the cougar off. |

That's a pretty good suggestion. There are quite a few Mountain lions up in the River Of No Return Wilderness, and you just might get a shot at one. Good luck with the elk, too. Who is your outfitter?? L.W.
