Cougars Amongst Us

A cougar was recently killed by Chicago police in a densely populated residential neighborhood about four miles from downtown Chicago. On autopsy the cougar was identified as having come from South Dakota and was thought to have traveled along railroad lines. So a cougar showing up at the University of Maryland is not impossible. Residents of College Park: don't leave your kitty-cat out tonight.

It wasn't a cougar

It was the Nittany Lion there to steal more recruits!
