kituwa said:I am in south Alabama, right on the florida line. We have what i assume is Florida panthers here, a sub species of the mountain lion. The fish and game people claim they are only a very small number of them in a small area of south florida. But they are seen around my area all the time. There are many here that have seen them,including me, many times and on game cameras. Someone just recently had a very good photo of one sitting on the side of a highway here in broad daylight with no mistaking what it is. And yes, a large part of them are black or a dark charcol color including the nice close up photo taken on the roadside. Still the game Dept says it cant be. Has to be an awful lot of them for as much as they are seen. We found a calf, over 100 pounds, a few years ago that was partly eatten up in a tree in our pastue. A panther is the only animal in our area that is able to do that as coyotes do not climb trees. We have also seen several cats that appear to be a cross between a bobcat and a panther. The one we see close to our house is about the size of a coyote and has a tail longer than a bobcat but not nearly as long as a panther. This one is a dark grey with no spots.We have seen this one 3 or 4 times both at night and durring the day.I often wonder, if the game dept says we do not have large cats here, is it leagle to shoot these non existing cats?lol
