A once-skeptical biologist says the evidence is clear
MARATHON, ON — There have been sporadic sightings of cougars in Northwestern Ontario in recent years, but seldom has there been evidence as clear as what was recently found in Pukaskwa National Park.
Individual digital images from one camera mounted near the Lake Superior shoreline have been edited by park staff to show the cougar in motion. It's the first time a cougar sighting has been documented in the park since it opened nearly 40 years ago. "The question we want to answer if if the animal is still around, maybe establishing part of its territory within Pukaskwa, or if it was just a cougar wandering and passing through, which is possible.""It's a big event for us and for the diversity of the region. The fact it was detected on our cameras but not before might say something about the protection of resources that the park provides....keeping a pristine forest where such a big animal can remain unseen.
