Yes up here in W.Pa my inlaws have watched a cougar for a few years now and then cross the big field and jump over the fence. Have seen the tracks in the snow. It's all here in this state, cougars, bobcats, bears and many skunks etc. I like to take my coffee out on the front steps about 4 AM or so and one hot summer morning sitting on the step without a shirt on, I felt something furry brushing cross my back rubbing on me... I was afraid to move because just a wk or so before that my dog suprised a skunk in a flower bed and she and the wife took a full blast...I sat quiet and it changed directions and rubbed it's fur all over me on the way back the other way....It ended up being a neighbors cat...Whew....at least not a polecat ...but the best one I bet noone on HC has ever had in their yard is a bintheron. Yep, had one here in the yard....If anyone has ever seen one or had one in the yard, I have to know...
