One of the dirt roads / trails through the woods on my deer lease near Ft Polk is named Cougar Rd after a confirmed mountain lion pic on a members game cam from 10 or so years ago.

They were native to the entire continent until extirpated. Slowly making their way back East from the West. Lots of game for them to eat, and hunting is mostly outlawed due to low/non-existent numbers.

Males tend to wander.
They should release some in BCNWR to rein in the piggies.

No, but I have seen photos of cougars showing up on game cams in West La. No black ones yet.

I saw one in De Soto parish, hunting years ago. It was 200 yds from me. I didn't get the gun up fast enough and it was it out of sight. I could see the hips and long tail through the scope before it went in woods. We had a guy claim to see a black one and another saw a mountain lion like I did.

Reminder that LDWF's official position was those cats dont exist in Louisiana for many many years, until the police were called out to shoot one out of someone's tree near Shreveport in Nov 2008.

They say that all the sightings have been males and have traveled from other states.
Either Texas or Oklahoma.

That was about the time I saw it. It was quite a few years ago.

Where at around Hamburg?
Posted on 10/10/25 at 5:08 pm to IndianPower
Not sure. It was in 2014.
Posted on 10/10/25 at 5:10 pm to SmackoverHawg
I never heard of one in Hamburg. Are you talking about the one in Hermitage?
Posted on 10/10/25 at 5:17 pm to pharmer
Maybe. I may have my cities wrong. One of them H cities that way.
It was around Hermitage.

We heard what sounded like a female mountain lion in heat in Union county about 16 years ago. Sounded like a woman screaming. Everyone in our lease heard it and what we pulled up online was what we heard. None since and no sightings, but after that one was killed less than an hour away, I have no reason to believe it wasn't.
That would mean a female and AGFC says no evidence of a breeding population. I'm no mountain lion expert but I've never heard any recordings of male mountain lions that sounded like what we heard.

We had pictures of one last year right outside Fountain Hill but never been seen again.
Guess he was passing thru LOL

Everyone knows the taxes that panthers pay to live in Arkansas is cost prohibitive to raising a family there. That's why they just visit from over the border

My dad told me that, "painters" as the locals in Vernon called them, were fairly common back in the 30s and 40s.
