well ok,cougar it is then,thx,i just wasn't sure if there was cougars this far NE and with oncoming headlights in my eyes couldn't swear 100% that it wasn't a big lynx.
Funny thing is,after posting this Q this morn,i also seen a pair of adult lynx around 9:30 this morn and 50Km from the cougar sighting.
Cool morning for cats.😎

I saw one a few km SE of ConklIn two years ago. We’ve had several other encounters with them on leases.
