My brother spotted a cougar running across US 2 south of the Soo in the 50s. Of course, no proof. They have been sighted many times throughout the state over the years, and this past year, for the first time, DNR acknowledged they are alive and well here. As their habitat decreases from all the building and logging that has been done, the wild ones have to adapt and get used to living closer to humans. It is time for humans to adapt as well. Keep Fluffy and Fido indoors at night!
