According to you only people who live in a subdivision haven't seen one. I don't live in a subdivision, want me to prove it, it's not that hard!
Maybe you identify as a subdivision inhabitant? Take a moment and look deep into your psyche. Ask yourself "Do i have a hidden desire for a HOA?" Do you ever find yourself longing to be near a culdesac?

Very entertaining thread. I agree. I can't wait until the thread turns towards chupacabras and the mothman. Figured these low brows would eventually get to the gook pungee pits and cartel planes in the woods

I saw 2 last summer. I was about 50 yards from them and they were on a rock ledge. No doubt, 100% mountain lions. I took pics.
If you want to see them I can give you the coordinates, they live right there where I saw them.

Warden where I hunt in Nebraska told me they collared one there and lost track of it in Springfield, IL
So those in SW Nebraska could get here just as fast I’d think
They are rough on deer especially older bucks post rut he said.

The odds of that shot happening are alot more probable than the odds of your whole family seeing mountain lions.

Cats are here, period. GW are conditioned, intentionally, to say they are not. IMO. Like me or hate me. I have been over 1000's of acres in Alabama. The Chit I have seen in the middle of no where to the tracks of a cat in the middle of a fire break. It is undeniable. I can give you the names of 5 guys right now that have seen them, and one was black. Guy that saw the black one back in late 80s will still really not talk about it. i never cared if folks believed me or not i used to hunt places nobody would hunt . you right about those dark places never now whats hideing in them.

The reason I put very little stock in these internet stories relates back to the earlier threads about black panthers. Now when anyone starts a thread about black panthers it is almost universally started as a joke. But there used to be people who were dead serious about seeing them. They would relate the EXACT same kind of stories we see now about mt lions. "I seen one back in 1984." "Walked past me at less than 40 yards and I watched him for a good 5 minutes." Of course the problem was these people were not only claiming to see an animal that did not exist in Alabama but an animal that doesn't exist PERIOD. There are no black panthers. Never have been. You could literally change everywhere they said "black panther" in their story to "unicorn", "minotaur", or "griffin" and their story would still be just as plausible. But that didn't stop them from claiming it. And then of course there are the ones who claim to have seen bigfoot which is also utterly ridiculous and undoubtedly utter bullchit. But still they claim it. So sorry I don't believe these stories without proof. Proof that despite all the claimed encounters never seems to materialize. As Carl Sagan was fond of saying, "incredible claims require incredible evidence." Internet claims are not evidence at all much less incredible evidence.
The best index to a person’s character is (a) how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can’t fight back. - Abigail van Buren

Y’all need to get a map of Alabama and study it.
Where are these “dark places” that nobody ever goes?
What is the largest piece of property in Alabama without some type of road running through it?
I seriously doubt that there is a single place in the State where you could drop someone off in the middle of the woods and they can’t walk out within an hour or two.
I was a practicing forester for 15 years. In the woods nearly every day. These places where “nobody has ever been” or “nobody goes” do not exist.
The Sipsey Wilderness is only about 4 miles wide.

Todd. You’re obviously a commie and that’s your right we’re in America. And I seen a black panther in Sylacauga in 1992 it was on some land that UAB owned and my friends dad had access and let us hunt it. Even hav a single wide we used to stay in. I’m not the only one who seen it either. Now weather anyone believes it I could care less
