LAST EDITED ON Dec-06-16 AT 04:27PM (MST)[p]I don't know about you but where I hunt, I can see mountain lion tracks almost every time out. I have even seen two lions while deer hunting and I am seeing far less deer than I did just a few years ago. I tend to simplify things but if every adult lion kills a deer a week, that surely puts a big dent in the deer population recovery.
The article linked below explains what we are up against with the antis and these are the folks writing emails and attending meetings.

These predator studies are an important step in restoring mule deer numbers in Colorado. Don't let the "manage by emotion" crowd dictate how we manage deer in this state. If it was up to them, we would never kill a mountain lion or a bear. Take 5 minutes and send the email.
