Show Record Cougar Taken At San Pete Utah's big wild cat, better known as a cougar, puma or mountain lion, can do considerable consider-able damage when he gets into a herd of deer or sheep. He is particularly par-ticularly fond of young colts. Down in Fairview Canyon near Sanpete, local sportsmen have killed or captured six big cats, some of which have been brought to town alive for exhibition. One of the animals weighed 130 pounds and measured 7 feet. 4 inches long. The cougar kills for the fun of killing and Sanpete sportsmen are having a lot of fun killing the killer, which after being be-ing treed by a pack of dogs, is cither captured or shot. The hunters hunt-ers get $15.00 bounty per animal I from the State. j |
