Connecticut officials are denying that this could have been a wild cougar. But remember the South Dakota cougar in Roscoe Village, Chicago?
Also, about ten years ago I found myself ten feet from an unconstrained cougar in a part of Florida where they are not supposed to exist anymore. So I am inclined to suspect they are more common than is believed. I think these critters mostly are doing a very good job of hiding from us, but it seems the occasion daredevil among them is attracted by bright lights and big cities. Which is really pretty interesting.

To be a pro writer, write more of this. There's a wealth of stories inside those paragraphs. It doesn't matter what anybody else wants. It's about what you discover and depict. Truth, profound and profane, comes from the reality created by your words and sentences.
