Either a cougar or Obama. Most things wrong with the USA usually get blamed on one or the other.
This is why rural people get a bad reputation for ignorance. Only on the rarest of occasions do cougars attack something other than deer, elk, rabbits, etc. to eat; their prey and how they hunt it is a learned behaviour. Like people, horses aren't really on the cougar diet because they're never taught that's what is okay to eat. Wolves, also, do not attack horses on even a rare basis, though the rancher is sure that wolves attack horse legs. Bobcats are tiny and wouldn't know what to do with a horse, other than avoid it. Even the mention of a bobcat attacking multiple horses is ridiculous and waters down any attempt at pinning this on a cougar. |
