There is no question about it. Cougars are not only being seen in eastern North America, some are attempting to recolonize their former habitats. Where once it was flatly dismissed as an impossibility in the so-called “developed” east, scientists have now documented cougar dispersals and even occupancy of a growing list of eastern states and provinces. Join us for a magnificently illustrated introduction to cougar biology and ecology in the broad diversity of habitats where Sue has studied them, from Alberta to the Arizona/Mexico border. We will also get the low-down regarding the latest confirmations of cougars in the east, including the recently documented suitability of a substantial amount of wild habitats from Manitoba to Louisiana and Maine to Georgia. It is only a matter of time!
Sue has been invited to give her cougar presentation by the Jericho Underhill Land Trust (JULT). Everyone is invited for refreshments at 6:30 p.m. with a short business meeting at 7:00 a.m. Right after the business meeting will be Susan Morse's presentation, followed by a short questtion and answer session.
