Somers sighting
Yesterday, 8/25/2012 at around 3 PM my wife was driving west on Rte190 (Main St) between Gulf Rd and Red House Kennels when a mountain lion loped across the road in front of her going from north to south. She saw it clearly and said the tail was very long. There is plenty of forest …
Mountain Lion sighting
Today 8/20/12 @ approximately 5:00pm I was stopped in my car on Wauregan/Maynard Road across from Liepis Rd. on the Brooklyn/Canterbury town line and saw a mountain lion saunter about 20 ft. in front of my car. As soon as it finished crossing, I put my car in gear and rolled up to where it …
OLD LYME DIRECT CONFRONTATION
On August 16, 2012, at around 7pm, I walked out my backdoor on Milecreek Rd. Old Lyme, Ct. and right there, less than 8ft. away was a very healthy lion and we actually made eye contact. We both turned tail. Knowing their behavior having lived in the Pacific NW, I turned back to be sure …
Thomaston Ct, Near the River
First time sighting, Was driving just off of S.Main St to a lot leading close to the river. I saw an animal (thought to be a bobcat at first). It turned back towards the tree line as soon as I had my first sighting and was approaching from about 50 yrds away with my noisy …
Sighting
I saw what might have been a mountain lion yesterday behind my house. It was large, thick, and had a long tail. There were four deer in the front yard so i suspect it was eyeing them. I live on the border of Washington and New Milford, off 109.
Sighting in Southington CT
Our neighbor told my wife today that she saw a mother and her cubs pass through our yard in the morning last week. Our neighbor said that the lioness was a big as a Labrador Retriever. She said she was certain it was a mountain lion based on the size, color and the fact that …
I saw one
I was driving down huckleberry road in Avon when a mountain lion ran right across the road. This happened in early April and I failed to report it then because I didn’t know it was a oddity.
Spotted possible mountain lion
8/5/12 @ approx 1:30am spotted what seemed to be a mountain lion crossing route 17 in Middletown close to Durham town line. Definitely not a coyote/dog nor a bobcat bc it had a long tail.
Mountain Lion (?) in Roxbury
We have pictures of what could be a mountain lion laying down under our hammock last week, and standing. DEEP says it is a bobcat of course. It is not square and stout like a bobcat. We’ve seen this animal in our fields sunning since the Spring, but now the tall grass hides things. The …
Mountain lion sighting
Yesterday midday I saw a fairly tall mountain lion on my property literally near my front door. It was quite thin and clearly searching for food. We live in a wooded area in Washington Depot near SteepRock.
Pulling in my driveway
I was just about to pull in my driveway when this “thing” ran infront of my car. It was kind of big so I parked and got out of my car to look. First I thought it was just another bear…but I haven’t seen any tan colored bears yet. When I looked across my street …
