Mountain Lions?
« on: November 20, 2003, 11:02:53 AM »
Do mountain lions live in Alaska?  If they do, is there a hunting season on them, and do, how far north does teir range extend to?  Also, what is the ball park average weight of mature cats?

There are periodic sitings of mountain lions but they are very rare.  They are slowly extending their range and someone sees one every couple of years.

No sign in the upper sections that I know of.

Haven't ever seen any tracks or sign.  But up in Elim I had a lynx following my tracks while caribou hunting once. :eek:
