The Return of the Cougar!

I have just received "Action on the Ground" from Parks Canada and it has some interesting information on the Eastern Cougar.

"Researchers at Fundy National Park of Canada have solid DNA evidence that hair samples from two test sites are from cougars, an animal last confirmed in New Brunswick in 1938"

The hair samples were collected from rubbing posts with Velcro-like strips attached to them.

There have been unconfirmed sightings of the cougar since the Park was established in 1948. Hopefully, in the years ahead there will be many more - and that the presence of the Eastern cougar in Fundy National Park is confirmed.

Until next time;

Alan
