Travel Info Are there any bobcats or cougars roaming freely in Portland,Or?if yes please show proof,like a web-site.thanks Travel Tips The closest recent sightings to Portland were down south of Portland about 50 miles, near Albany, last week. "Cody McClaughry, 10, and his 8-year-old brother Tyler don鈥檛 wait by themselves for the school bus anymore on Upper Berlin Road. The boys saw a cougar last week watching them in a crouched position, so now their grandfather waits with them until the bus picks them up. 鈥淚 think he was getting ready for a meal,鈥?Fitzwater said. He added there have been 鈥渜uite a few鈥?cougar sightings up and down the road in the last week. The boys and their two sisters live with their mom, Carrie Fitzwater, and her parents in the hills off Upper Berlin Road northwest of Sweet Home. They saw the cougar Thursday morning, within feet of their driveway. Cody said he ran back down the hill to their house while his brother stayed behind. He said the cougar took off when the school bus came." Here's the story so you can read it for yourself. http://www.democratherald.com/articles/2... Others Um no lol, portland has 600,000 people, and 2 cougars, AT THE OREGON ZOO., i live in hillsboro 13 miles from portland and portland is actually one big city, from forest grove, through gresham, and i have lived here my whole life and never seen anything except a coyote on the edge of town. Oregon is home to an estimated 5,000 cougars. The majority live in the Blue Mountains and the southwest Cascade Range. Portland is Northwest of the Cascade Range. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Portland is in an area that was once prime bobcat/cougar territory. It's a big city now, of course, but I suspect that there are occasional encounters with both types of animals, as well as many others, as human beings encroach on the areas in which wildlife once lived. Sorry I don't have a web site - it's just what makes sense to me having lived in a couple of different areas of the country where city and wildlife habitat meet. They should still be there.If azz holes would stop killing them you want proof look it up. are you one of the slime balls killingthem |
