So the big question is, when are these resurgent predators going to startThere sure are a lot of
squirrels...lord knows what the squirrels eat to get by...the squirrels take
any
pecan or hickory before the nut inside can every begin to fill out, so how are
the squirrels taking advantage of the food offered by the nut tree? I went
for a walk in the dead of night the other night, went to a nearby hill for a
little run, and got to thinking, in 10-years, this will no longer be
possible. I
will not be able to go running in the woods in 10-years. The mountain lions
will have returned by then. Where the mountain lions are, no bike riding or
running is advised, fast motion stimulates any type cats to run down the fast
moving object. I went to a lecture sponsored by 5 different mountain lion
watch and conservation organizations. After an absence of many decades,
mountain
lions have returned to Missouri. Mountain lions have returned to Missouri
because their prey, the deer, have returned to Missouri. In the east, deer
double each 10 years. Already, we have had multiple unverified sitings of
mountain lion less than 10 miles from Boston! In Missouri, the sitings have
been
verified. Its just a question of time. However, the fishers and coyotes here
have returned in force, and I can't see they've yet changed our environmental
conditions dramatically. Do you see any substantial difference?
Charlie Paradise, prob. will be first in Massachusetts to be attacked by
mountain lion
