text: Mathew: ( "Have I ever been stalked by a Cougar").  Not that I was ever aware of.   I spent 15 seasons out in the deep woods bow hunting deer and elk.  I saw plenty of Cougar, Bear.  There were numerous  times I heard movement in the thick brush and timber, but could not see because it was so thick., but that could be a number of any animals, birds, etc.    I am sure there were  Cougar's   watching me and I could not see them because they are total Stealth.  If you  know what  you are doing  and move around in the forest correctly listening and watching,  it is amazing how many Cougar you will see in the daytime.   There were many times I would camp overnight 2, 3, 4  nights in a row,  and in the morning I would see Deer, and  Elk tracks all around my camp and where you see those tracks you also see Cougar tracks.    No problem.   In 15 years of hunting I saw approx. 50-60 Cougar.   Everytime I saw a Cougar in the daytime as soon as it saw me, it would take off.
