Show Me the Mommy

Dave Hamilton, chair of the Mountain Lion Response Team of the Missouri Department of Conservation, in a letter in the current issue of Audubon, writes that there is not a breeding population of mountain lions in Missouri despite a number of recent sightings. In his response, Ted Williams of Audubon points out that many researchers disagree and believe that the cats are breeding in Missouri. Coming soon: I will try to dig up a map of mountain lion sighitngs in the state and post the link.
