Another Mountain Lion Sighted in Michigan
“Based on documented evidence, cougars observed in Michigan could be escaped or released pets. Or, they could be transient or dispersing cougars from the nearest known breeding populations in North and South Dakota,” stated the DNR on its website. “These populations are over 900 miles from Michigan.”
This 60 second clip contains footage from a trail cam that was setup by hunters from Remus who discovered a deer kill site. The footage revealed a male cougar who repeatedly returned to the site to consume the deer. The footage was verified and confirmed by DNR Wildlife Division staff. The Michigan DNR has now confirmed nearly 30 UP cougar sightings.
