I lived for several years in the low country of South Carolina in the mid 1980s. I drove a back road home late at night after work and I regularly saw bobcats and foxes. I saw coyotes twice and had a half grown couger cross the road right in front of me. I hit the brakes and turned to the side of the road to shine my headlights on the cat which had stopped about 30 yards off the road in an open field. I had no doubt what so ever of what I was looking at. When I mentioned it to a game warden a few weeks later he said that they had no cougers or coyotes either one in the area. Now 15 years later there are lots of coyotes there. What I found interesting about seeing the couger was that it was a half grown one. What does that say? Usually when animals are spotted that aren't in their normal range it turns out to be a male that went on a walk about searching for its own territory.
