We have seen them in Beatrice and I saw tracks of one in Furman. My son said he saw one a couple years ago not far from Brantley. None on camera. Don't want to bait them...they may start hunting me! LOL

Only way to kill them and it be legal is in self defense or if someone is in danger. But it had better be chewing on your neck before you pull the trigger.

Some guy in Talladega has one. You probably need to call the Chief of Police to see if he knows anything about it. He's a very understanding feller and will be happy to help.
Good luck!

We have a new strain. A guy that owns 80 acres next to me, says that he saw a charcoal gray colored one about 2 weeks ago. He claims he watched it jump out of a tree, jump the road in one leap, and hall arse up the mountain. He said the tail was 3' long.

Re: has anybody ever saw or got pics of mountain lions in alabama. - 11/19/14 11:24 AM

the encounter I was talking about: My brother and I split up in the woods and I was way off from him. We where scounting hunting spots out. He came running and said he saw one. After he showed me where he and it was, it was about 50 yrds away and he said he got a real good look at it. He also said the tail was about 5 ft long but I think he was exaggerating. We cant get a picture because my camera keeps messing up, but we will eventually.

If you find one don't tell the GW, according to a GW I talked to, they are supposedly extinct and Don't exist in AL which means they would stop all hunting within a 50 miles square radius if you were to find one and report it

"There has not been a mountain lion sighting in Alabama since 1953"

Exact words from a game warden that taught my hunter Ed class back in 1999 or so.

I know there are skeptics but I have seen 2 tan ones in a field while checking for calving cows around 1980 in Clarke county one night.They were standing at the edge of the pasture. They had orange eyes and l remember ones long tail keep whipping around like it was agitated. We had just seen a wounded buck limping across the field. We figured they were after the buck. Scared the crap out of us. We had always heard they were around but never had seen one till that night.

First here's some background info on these pictures. The gentleman in these pictures works with my Uncle repairing cell phone towers. Late one night in December of 2010 he was en route to a job site on a remote road near Livingston in Sumter County, AL when this behemoth jumped off an overhanging ledge directly in front of his vehicle injuring the animal & obviously damaging the truck.

The lion was still alive but unable to move, so he contacted animal control services. They came put the cat down, measured, took samples of some sorts, & then proceeded to dispose of the animal. The man then asked if he could just keep the cat in hopes of having it mounted & they obliged.

This cat weighed 260lbs while most mature male mountain lions weigh 80 to 150 lbs. A local land owner claims to have seen this cat a week before dragging off a 320lb steer...

He we go with the black cats again. No matter how many times a mountain lion humps another mountain lion it will never ever come out black. The black ones are located in South America not south alabama or any other place in alabama or the us.

Until I actually see one I will never believe they are in Alabama. And given chance I will have irrefutable evidence and then maybe my own article in AON grin

I know a guy that has seen tracks. He is in and out of the woods more than most of us as it is his job to measure stream levels across the state. Obviously the guy has been on many stream banks and seen many tracks and he adamantly swears he's seen big cat tracks more than once. Coming from some people I wouldn't believe them, but considering this guys job and that he's a no bs kinda guy, I believe him wholeheartedly. He doesn't hunt much, maybe a couple of times a year at most, so his "sightings" or intuition aren't based on some deer camp banter or experiences while hunting only a few times a year.

I think the question should be who hasn't seen a mountain lion in alabama. Most avid hunters probably have. I dont see why they need to populate here. I would suggest treating them like you would a bobcat or coyote.
