[Billybob]

[Several sightings of mountain lions in southwest Oklahoma City near Will Rogers World Airport are putting residents in one neighborhood on alert.

Signs are now warning residents in the Westmoor neighborhood near S.W. 74th Street & Council that trappers have verified cougars live near the area. They are urging everyone to stay off of heavily-wooded trails and keep kids inside from dusk to dawn.]

My co-worker lives in west Edmond and saw a mountain lion out by Western and 2nd. He also has bobcat problems at his house.

That is just a couple of miles from my house. I do have an over grown field across the street with some deer in it and a pasture just down the street with miniature horses in it. I think that he would head there before coming into a neighborhood.

Hard to believe, but there are plenty of wild places around there. Why on earth would big cats get that close to civilization? The heat/drought maybe?
