Cougar food cache


DNR biologist Jess Carstens discovered a presumed food cache Monday, Dec. 21. A cougar is believed to have killed the fawn deer, fed on a portion then covered the remains with corn stalks from a farmer’s field. Evidence examined Tuesday showed the cat likely returned to the cache overnight. Photo courtesy WDNR.
