Those stories really need hard video/photographic evidence to convince me. The scent lures are a great idea to increase the chance of a sighting. Interesting sightings! Have to laugh at the squirrels' reaction to the lures! 😅

Great video Cliff. I was shocked at that first story! The way it is written, it is the mountain lion eating a bacon and egg sandwich. I didn't even know mountain lions could cook. Amazing stuff! It would be amazing, though, if you could catch a mountain lion on a trail cam! I'm doubtful of course, but it would be great.

Thanks for the videos, I really enjoy them. We have such beautiful forests in Pa. That log on the trail cam looks like it might have had turkey tail mushrooms on it. Very healthful mushroom, but you have to dry it and make a powder.

This is an excellent progression of your channel. I really enjoy these trail cam as a general viewing and its fun to see what comes along. I would not rule out mountain lions from the area but those stories are not good. I like to keep an open mind as we think many things are gone and then one day Voila!. But I just don't want to be on the trail when that Voila! happens...LOL. Keep up the great work.

I live in Nook very close to where Stolzfus small engine repair is, like not even a mile away. My mom saw one while weed eating when I was 5, that was 20 years ago. Our dog at the time, treed the mountain lion. They have been around or passing through for a long time.

I'm hiking in the woods 50+ years. I've seen a mountain lion twice. Both times along densely traveled PA interstate highways. Both times eating roadkill. Not the kills splattered all over the road. The kills that crawled off and died. Take it or leave it. They pass through 100%!

Loved this! That was a good idea to put the cams by the log. The bear at the beginning surprised me. It looked like a bear or something rather big and black going up the hill on the left side. I couldn't see a tail if itvwas a raccoon. I believe there are mountain lions here,why not? Wouldn't that be awesome if you caught one on the cam? Good clear videos, too. Be safe❤❤❤❤

Back in the 80's the headwaters of Blacklog creek held ample brookies. Had a ft long brookie wrapped my line around roots in a pool only 6 ft in diameter size. Must have caught and released dozens of those little beauties. Last trip up in there 20 years ago revealed powerline construction which ruined those headwaters. Some call that progress. Not I

Kind of cool that you are able to put trail cams up in y’all’s parks. I think it is still legal here in Texas, but I know there is a push to follow a handful of the other states and get them banned on public land.

I know absolutely nothing about mountain lions however here in Australia during severe droughts for bushfire we sometimes see animals that are not usually seen in our areas animals will travel out of their normal areas if their food source is very low. So to me it's always a possibility I guess that a lion could pass through if looking for food

Just like the coyotes and bears are moving back into their historical range, I believe mountain lions will also. Although at a slower rate since they were essentially extinct in this, and most, areas in the eastern US.

I do wildlife photography and like to read the bear and mountain lion attack books. I might have seen one years ago. There were rumors about a lion track being found in the snow back then. I was driving on a smaller road at night and an animal jumped across the road in front of me. I saw a cat shaped head and a long tail followed the body. It touched the road once. I can't say it absolutely was a lion but I know what it was not. I use to search for tracks and scat up on the mountains. While looking for animals to photograph, I see far more deer and bears near people than on game lands. So lions could be near people because their food is near people. Years ago, we had horses. Sometimes they would have scratches on their butt like something attacked them. One day I drove past someone sitting along the road just up from our horse pasture. They said they saw a mountain lion with a baby in a field that overlooked the horse pasture. I didn't see it so I don't know what they saw. I also use game cameras. I'll catch squirrels, opossums, doe, fawns, coyotes, raccoons, bears and rarely a bobcat. No lions yet. Road damaged animals... The bobcats will come first, then coyotes and then the bears. Much of the time worms (maggots?) will consume the road damaged animal and nothing else comes. I have had people insist that they saw a lion and their picture will be of a bobcat.

Something to think about there are between 5000 and 7000 big cats held in captivity in the us , less then 10 percent are in accredited sites , meaning zoo or safari type park or rescue center . Of the other 90 percent there are probably quite a few escapes and intensional realeases . Alligators native range has never been anywhere close to pa but i think 2 or 3 have been captured in the Allegheny in the last couple of years . If there where a breeding population there would have to be way more sightings.

The only place I know of that has documented pictures and reports of mountain lions east of the Mississippi (cougars) is Florida. Not that I don't believe they may exist elsewhere. There was a report when I lived in Pensacola FL that a cougar was seen jumping from a tree and heading down railroad tracks near a beach at Pensacola Bay.

A mountain lion's staple diet is deer, not cows. One deer can last a mountain lion up to 2 weeks. Would be good to actually have mountain lions to curb the CWD disease in deer, and balance the animal food chain populations. All these years go by and no actual concrete mountain lion footage. Sadly, there will never be a breeding mountain lion population in PA, due to the ignorance of people, which is why they became extirpated, or geographically extinct in PA in the first place. The sightings at best would be a stray wondering male mountain lion looking for a female, here today and gone tomorrow. The closest documented mountain lion population is in Nebraska in extreme isolated areas, but sadly they are being persecuted and due to their lifecycle will never gain a foothold beyond there, so no documented population east of the Mississippi. It's pathetic how man through ignorance and selfishness has ruined the health of the natural world by taking out apex predators, which is what maintains the health of the natural world being at the top of the food chain. It would be like taking the sharks out of the ocean.

You have no clue what you're talking about! You should visit the hardware store in Orbisonia. They had a local picture of a mtn lion in Blacklog valley. Secondly, you need to listen to the two cats in the wild and not on some stupid computer!! There's a serious difference in their screams and growls!! A bob cat isn't near as loud as a mtn lion.
