Re: Help living with a lion

Sorry if i was unclear, the bobcats were at our old house. We caught them in the act. We did have lions in the area, one killed and maimed several colts and we had some cattle killed. They were hunted and dispatched promptly. The difference is they were not at the house, they were miles away in the ...

Re: Help living with a lion

Well you all have me confused :P Some say the lion has to go now, others say no problem at all. I guess there isn't much of a middle ground. I have to say i'm firmly with the 'get rid of it now' camp. I don't like feeling like I live in the lion enclosure at the zoo. Maybe i'm wrong to be so ...

Re: Help living with a lion

We're in Colfax Co. I'm leary about trying to keep the lion scared away as that will just make it harder to get rid of if we need to, and I think it would be a matter of time before it grew accustomed to us and moved in closer again. I wouldn't exactly describe him/her as being 'in the back 40', it ...

Re: Help living with a lion

I'd rather be armed than not! We're going to see if we can get permission from the ranch manager to do something about it, but do you think making our presence very much known will keep the lion away? We were thinking about putting a loud radio out by the barn, taking the dogs down there to pee on ...

Re: Help living with a lion

I guess I should put the game camera out and see what exactly we're dealing with.. not that I particularly want to see it! Just my luck my goats are due to start kidding and the electricity is out in the barn. I won't be going out there unarmed.

Help living with a lion

We are 'blessed' with a lion that patrols literally along the back side of our barn at our new house. There are tracks left consistently along the same path and it seems to be passing through every four days or so, just three feet from our corrals and horse barn. The game dept. will not do anything ...
