When I moved back to SC. I lived in Huger (pronounced Hugee) for a couple of years. Yes there are wolves here and yes there are cougars. Sorry I didn't have a camera at the ready when I have seen wolves. DNR does refute that they are present but I have seen pictures of big black cats that locals have taken with their game cameras and I have personally seen wolves. We also have Coyotes everywhere until wolves come back to that area and move them out and we have bobcats.

There are no wolves in SC, there are coyotes, big ones can look like wolves though and some highbreeds with large dogs too....

No Cougars either, atleast not the four legged kind, Bobcats are the biggest cat you will find in our woods.

I have hunted all over the state of SC and I know people that hunt all over, they post pictures of everything they see on their game cameras and NONE, I repeat NONE have ever put up pictures of either wolves or cougars caught on film in this state....

Correct. No red wolves in SC. They were released on islands here once upon a time for captive breading research, but not any longer. According to the Internet, the only wild population is in NE North Carolina.

Don't you watch those shows about wild animals randomly attacking people outside?
