Page 46: One of the exemptions for carrying a rifle or muzzleloader during big game archery hunts has been edited for clarity to include applicable bear and cougar hunts (new information in bold): "Hunters who are licensed to hunt big game species, bear or cougar during rifle or muzzleloader hunts that coincide with the big game archery hunt." The online edition of this guidebook has been updated with this change.
The Utah Cougar Guidebook summarizes the laws and rules that govern hunting and pursuing cougars in Utah. The Utah Wildlife Board approved a new timeframe for the cougar regulatory cycle, which allowed for alignment with the black bear timeframe.
Page 37: By emergency order, the DWR is implementing predator management plans allowing for the unlimited harvest of cougar for the following hunting units, which have been removed from the "Harvest-objective hunts" table on page 37 and are now found with updated season dates on the "Harvest-object units with active predator control" table on page 38:

Drought and heavy winter conditions in 2017 through 2019 resulted in significant declines in mule deer populations. On certain units, recovery of mule deer populations has been impeded by high cougar populations. The units with emergency permit changes have exhibited deer population declines of 15% or greater and have either already filled their harvest objective for cougar or are expected to based upon previous harvest success. Reductions in cougar populations on these units and at these levels will facilitate mule deer herd recovery while providing sustainable management of both predator and prey populations.

The following units have been deleted from the "Harvest-objective units" table and are now listed in the "Harvest-objective units with active predator management plans" table on page 38.

We report the long-distance dispersal of a subadult male cougar (Puma concolor) from South Dakota to Milford, Connecticut, where it was struck and killed by a vehicle. Genetic samples suggest this animal originated from the Black Hills of South Dakota while isotope analysis and physical inspection revealed no evidence that the animal had been held in captivity. We detected this dispersing individual at 5 locations along its route (Minnesota, 3 times in Wisconsin and New York) with DNA from fecal or hair samples, and with multiple photographs from citizen-run camera traps (3 in Wisconsin and 1 in Michigan). The > 2,450 km straight-line distance (Black Hills of South Dakota to Connecticut) traveled by the cougar is the longest dispersal documented for the species. We propose a likely route of > 2,700 km over 2 years based on topography and our confirmed records. We suggest that this excessive movement was motivated by the absence of female cougars along the route. The documentation of such a rare biological event not only shows the great dispersal potential for male cougars but also highlights our ability to detect these movements with verifiable voucher DNA and photographic records. Evidence collected for this one animal, and complete absence of verifiable data from most anecdotal reports of cougars in the east, further confirms the lack of a breeding population in the region.
For black bears harvested within Region 1, physical inspection of a harvested black bear is not required. Successful Region 1 hunters must submit a premolar tooth from harvested black bears and deliver them to a FWP office within 10 days, either in person or by mail (postmarked within 10 days).
Within 10 days of harvesting a black bear, the successful hunter must present to a Montana FWP official the complete bear hide and skull for the purpose of inspection, tagging and possible removal of a tooth (for aging). The hide and skull must be presented in a condition that allows full inspection and tooth collection (i.e., unfrozen). Any hide or skull not presented or registered to FWP personnel within 10 days of harvest is subject to confiscation.
In Bear Management Units with a harvest quota (BMUs 510, 520, 600 & 700), when a hunting season quota is reached or approached, the black bear hunting season in that district will close.
A resident hunter with a valid Black Bear License may lawfully chase black bears with hounds during the spring hound season in any valid hunting district or management unit during the period that unit is open to hound hunting or chasing.
A resident who possesses a Class D-3 Resident Hound Training License may pursue black bears with a dog or dogs during a training season from the end of the spring season for black bear through June 15 of that year as authorized by the commission (MCA 87-6-404(4)).
It is prohibited for a dog owner or black bear hunter to release dogs on a black bear, or allow dogs to chase a black bear, or hold a black bear at bay during any period of the day or year when the season is not open to hunting or chasing black bears. Legitimate attempts to retrieve loose dogs after legal hunting hours does not constitute a violation of this rule.
Persons using hounds to hunt are required to have a valid Resident Black Bear License if hunting or chasing during the black bear hunting season, or a valid Class D-3 Resident Hound Training License during a training season from the end of the spring season for black bear through June 15 of that year as authorized by the commission. Nonresidents must also have a Nonresident Hound License during the hunting or training season if they are using dogs.
The holder of a Nonresident Class D-4 Black Bear Hound License may not assist another person in the pursuit of a black bear for harvest. Any area restrictions on the Black Bear License and the Nonresident Black Bear Hound License both apply as well as quota restrictions in quota areas.
Trichinellosis, also called trichinosis, is a disease that people can get by eating raw or undercooked meat from animals infected with the microscopic parasite, Trichinella. Infection occurs commonly in certain wild carnivorous animals such as bear or cougar, or omnivorous animals such as domestic pigs or wild boar.
The approved colors for any apparel, including t-shirts, sweatshirts and any other wearable items bearing the University cougar logo, claw marks wordmark and claw marks, should match PMS 485 red, white, black or gray, unless approved by UMC.
Representations of the cougar are NOT allowed with the exception of photographs of the official mascot and statue or the University-approved drawing of the statue. Permission for use must be granted by UMC.
Rippling with hammered details, flared silver frames join below the collar, creating a fierce fringe. Earthy black stones are pressed into the tops of the frames for a colorful finish. Features an adjustable clasp closure.

Across the eastern United States, there are frequent reports of cougar sightings in areas where the big cat is thought to no longer exist. Alabama is no different, and wildlife officials regularly receive calls and e-mails about cougars seen in the state. However, there has not been a reliable, verified sighting in Alabama in over 50 years. Is there really a population of these big cats roaming the wilderness of Alabama, or is it all just a myth?
The closest known cougar populations to Alabama exist in western Texas and southwestern Florida. Dispersing wild cougars have been identified as near as Louisiana and Arkansas, but none have been sighted east of the Mississippi outside of Florida. The last confirmed cougar in Alabama was killed in 1956 in Tuscaloosa County. Since then, Alabama wildlife officials have not been able to confirm any of the frequent reports of cougar sightings. As recently as 2008, a cougar was shot by a hunter in Georgia, and upon further investigation, the cat was determined to be a descendant from the small southwest Florida population. Although many people hate to admit it, the Alabama cougar is likely more a myth than a reality. 2ff7e9595c
