摘要
Several sightings of Mountain Lions (Puma concolor) and wildlife mortalities consistent with predation by Mountain Lion have occurred in and adjacent to Elk Island National Park from February 2003 to present. These are the first recorded Mountain Lions (locally called Cougar) sightings since the area encompassing the park was protected in 1906.
