When confronted, they're all talk and no action. A predator will often leave a dead animal alone and seek out live prey instead. We hope our mystery caller sees this column. We'd enjoy following up on the this story. Please give us a return call at home or at the office at 861-9287.
Cougar sightings are back, as well.
In Chelsea, Joe Doody said he saw a large cat-like animal not once, but twice, within 50 yards of his Forrest Lane home. The tail really made me sit up and take notice. I saw the tail even over the snowbank. Doody described the animal as sleek and long, similar to a common house cat. The body fur was a tawny, grayish color, but the tail was dark-tipped, he said.
