Cougar removed from yard of Santa Fe-area home
There was an article in the SF New Mexican this morning that I thought actually involved Towanda hitting on young men in the grocery store, but it turned out to be something else once I got past the headline.

This happened in Eldorado where I live.
We occasionally see bobcats out here and quite often coyotes -- but a cougar -- now that's really cool.
The Santa Fe Daily New Mexican article has a neat picture of her.

Big kitty!!! What a good photo of a beautiful animal. I'm glad they were able to relocate her without injury to any party concerned.
