One got loose a few years back, not 10 miles from where I live. Not sure if it was ever found, just recall the big black cat getting loose from it's pen. Happens more than most realize. EH Darby had 2 in his house over in Sheffield back in the 80's. Seen the pens in person, held regular mountain lions. Darby owned Southern Sash.

[img:center]http:// [/img] My buddy sent me this pic this weekend. I said house cat but he showed the pic to a vet that said it was no way a house cat. He said the pic came from his club in Eutah AL.

that is for sure a black panther. That tree in front of it is actually about 4" in diameter. The cat is so big it just makes it look like a blade of sage grass.

until someone shoots on of these mystery lions ans a news reporter makes a story by it. i don't think we have wild big cats in Alabama i think the dcnr is right they do not live in these parts .even though i worked with a guy on red stone that swears he has em in his woods i asked how come your cows don't come up missing the big cat got to eat they don't get big by not eating. Isn't it against the law to shoot one.... so thet say whoever they is, i found online that the dcnr says they are here i do remember reading that the dcnr says no they are not here, change 99 they are too there is a site that documents a lot of stuff on big cats here in our state it is called cougar net, it tells about puma that have left the florida panhandle spreading back here. i hope going to the deer stand i don't run up on one in the dark. no telling what it will smell if i do. gun or bow in hand i will defend my self as best i can:) yes i think you are correct beside if it attacks me then it is up to proof in court it might get stuck by some of my cold steel knives. in the process somebody shoot amongst us some body got to have relief Which brings me to another topic. Don't smoke crack.

The chances of a mountain lion being melanistic (black ) is 1 in 100,000....... So if there are five black ones in the whole state that means we should have a half million tan ones running around. Actually there has never been a documented case of a melanistic mountain lion. There are melanistic phases of leopards and jaguars, but not our native cougar/Florida Panther.

I saw a wolverine on State docks road in Decatur in the early 90's. Wasn't sure what it was so came back to work and was looking at pictures of wolverines and badgers just to determine what I saw. I decided it was a wolverine and told the guys there I just saw a wolverine over on State Docks Rd.. Of course they laughed at me and I would have them. A couple days later there was a pic of it in the Decatur Daily where somebody had hit it. Article said they figured it got on a barge and decided to get of when it was docked at the river. Saw a bear cross I20 near Tuscaloosa once, and then heard on the radio about one getting run over in that area two day later. I ain't never seen nothing bigger than a bobcat. But I don't automatically dismiss people who say they do. I have heard some awfully creepy sounds in Bankhead at night.

Actually there has never been a documented case of a melanistic mountain lion. There are melanistic phases of leopards and jaguars, but not our native cougar/Florida Panther. OK, so we're back to black Leopards and black Jaguars. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think either of the two are free range on this continent, regardless of color. I do think Barnum and Baily's train derailed in North Alabama.....bout a hundred years ago. BTW thanks for that info Coonhunter, been trying to convince some hillbillies for 30 years there ain't any , solid black ,long tail, panthers in these parts.

I am sure that dark brown, which is a color phase of mountain lions, could be easily mistaken at dusk and dawn.
