Catamounts

I have mentioned them before and the mountain lions are here thick as flies!!

"On Saturday, said Mrs Schmidt, Newtown Animal Control confirmed that what she and Hannah suspected — that they had seen a mountain lion. The officer based the confirmation on the paw prints that remained embedded in the ground, even after the lawn was mowed.

"We could actually see the pad and claw marks and the distance between the prints was incredible," wrote Mrs Schmidt in an e-mail she distributed to friends and neighbors."

The Bee ran the story without confirming with animal control, I suppose due to press time issues. Essentially running an email as a news item, which is pretty weak.
