BFRO hears those all the time

Much like the black panther, these do not exist.

So a quick search tells me that you're actually the 3rd Coach Klein on this website. Thought you were clever huh?

Best thread possible to see who is all full of shite.


About a decade ago I did a paper in undergrad and part of it I had to ask the class who has seen a panther in the wild in LA or has a family member that has, and over 90% the room raised their hand. Nearly all had an uncle with property that sees them all the time

To put it into perspective the Florida Panther population is believed to be less than 100. However in 2014 more than 20 panthers were hit and killed by cars.

My boss is a no bs kind of guy. The man saw two black panthers fricking in a cane field during deer season right out of race land. He has pictures. I'll work on getting them.

No he didn't. The odds of that happening in Africa, Asia or South America is almost impossible. Here, it is impossible.

What are you talking about? Must have been responding to someone else, I posted sounds from 3 distinctive species, one not even a cat.

Mountain lions/cougars (Genus Puma) are a different Species and Genus than the Jaguar (technically this is the only cat of the Genus Panthera in the western hemisphere).

I grew up in NW FL. Had one scream behind me in bow seasom, right before dark. That'll get the blood pumping. I've heard foxes, bobcats, all that. That shite was a rather large feline.

I can verify with certainty that at least one of each of these animals are in LA.

didn't read the whole thread so may have already been stated. The LDWF headquarters has a 140 pound cougar in the lobby that was killed in the Atchafalaya area. I asked an agent in the building that I thought their official stance was there is no cougars in LA to which he responded that is a myth. he says the numbers are low however we have them in all areas of the state.
