Sighting in Barkhamsted
In March 2008 I saw a Mt Lion near the Barkhamsted Reservoir. There was NO mistaking what I saw. It had to be 6-7 feet long from nose to tip of tail and about 140-160lbs. It leaped across the road in front of my car and jumped up and embankment effortlessly. My family were speechless for a few seconds not believing what we had just witnessed. They are here. I am not sure how they came to roam the CT woods again but, they are most certainly here. They were native here until we killed them off. You shouldn't mess with mother nature.
Also has anyone heard what the DNA results were from the Milford lion hit by the car? It seems strange that the results are taking so long.
