bobbyo Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Has anyone seen this picture before. Is it a real Mountain Lion or a photoshop job? It was supposedly shot in Iowa and weighs over 200#. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
az4life Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Seems like I have seen the photo before, maybe 3 yrs ago. I seem to think it was from Canada or Montana, but no proof. Things on the internet do seem to recycle, but in any case it is a big lion! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiras Report post Posted February 14, 2006 We're waiting for him to be killed here in Oklahoma. We haven't had a good mountain lion kill here since......well....ever. It will do our state good. No wait, they are on our endangered species list...scratch that. Hey Scotty, I love our V.P., but maybe you should call him up and give him a few quail hunting pointers -Shiras Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kilimanjaro Report post Posted February 14, 2006 I don't know there Shiras, I don't think a load of bird shot to the face from the ol' 28ga would feel too good. The VP needs to have his eyes checked to see if he is Blaze Orage Blind!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobbyo Report post Posted February 15, 2006 Come on Scotty, Iowa is a heck of alot closer than B.C. if you are filing alphabetically. Anyway who believes the boone and crockett sight. I choose to believe my thrice passed e-mail where I got the posted picture. Below I copied the story that came with the e-mail. It is much better and more believable than that stinking Boone and Crockett story. Now this is an Iowa "cow-corn fed"mountain lion! Looks like Iowa deer hunting just got a little more exciting. This mountain lion was shot north of Villisca, Iowa. Close to Morton Mills. The man pictured was going deer hunting when he heard his neighbors cows making noise. He discovered this cat attacking some calves.He shot and reportedly the cat jumped eight feet into the air, ran about 100 yards and died. The man in the picture is over 6 feet tall and the cat weighed over 200 pounds. Tenville and Morton Mills are tiny little towns in rural Iowa. If you blink you'll miss them while driving by the towns. Tenville has a population of ! 8? Tenville is located between Morton Mills and Villisca. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
