LATEST SIGHTINGS



After The Post and Courier ran a story about the difficulty of establishing whether cougars or mountain lions exist in the Lowcountry, we were inundated with new eyewitness accounts. As a result, we've published a new map that you can find at Charleston.net

Feel free to add your sightings here, and we'll update the map as we go along.

New Cougar Story




Here's the latest cougar story in The Post and Courier, which triggered another round of sighting reports - more than 20, including some intriguing pictures. Here are two from a couple who live near Charleston. They report that they saw a cougar cub, and that their fence was damaged by something with large claws. These pictures were taken at dusk and aren't definitive, as no tail can be seen. But they're interesting nonetheless.
