    Get real , cougar attacks on adult humans are extremely rare , add the whole " have to go through a glass sliding door first " circumstance to the scenario and I bet that chance falls to " never happened before " and that cat looks extremely healthy

    They're going to have to bring in an expert who knows more about these types of things.

    Expert - "Hmm, yes this is worth about $2000"

    Pawn Star - "Best I can do is $5."

    Scientist found a yeti nest in the himalays recently. They found some of it hair and did genetic testing on it. I'm pretty sure it came from a primate if i remember correctly. Saw the stuff on a credible website from discovery channel i think.

    Owning a Ranch would be cool, but I don't own one. There's not really ranch land in Greenbrier, TN.

    I remember about 10 years there were a few sighting in Delaware, of all places. I think it was in White Clay Creek SP, which is a fair chunk of woods bordering on a pretty suburban area. I think fish and game decided that it was someone's pet cougar that escaped. But I suppose it's possible that one wandered down from some mountainous place.

    I remember as a kid growing up in central NJ, aka MEGA suburbs, one time a black bear showed up and caused quite a ruckus. It was like front page new because we were pretty damn far from any suitable bear habitat.
