Good read. I have a co-worker who swears they have seen one. I always dismissed it (especially since i was hunting their land :o ) That's quite a trek!

Thats crazy! That is just a testament to their toughness I suppose. I wonder if they will ever figure if he was in NY and what his path was.

I gotta say... at first I thought this was another trick. I had visions of a pic of a hot older chick on a bike or something. Good article though. I think there might be a cougar at my house. ::) Cheeks out!!! 8)
