Mountain Lions In Nebraska

Richard Bischoff of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission came and spoke to the Wildlife Club on February 12^th about mountain lions in Nebraska. He talked about such issues as why mountain lions are returning to Nebraska, how to tell the difference between a lion and a bobcat, and what to do if you encounter a mountain lion in the wild. Club members also got to watch some footage of a mountain lion feeding on a deer carcass filmed in Western Nebraska.

Mountain lions are native to Nebraska,

but only in the last few years as the big

cats are returning has there been a

need to inform the public on how to

properly identify a mountain lion. The

pamphlet at right and below is intended

to help inform about mountain lion facts,

history, and identification.
