CHADRON, Neb. (AP) – Nebraska officials say there were at least
13 mountain lions in Dawes, Sioux and Sheridan counties last
summer.
The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission says dogs were used to
find the mountain lion excrement, which was tested to determine how
many different animals were in the area.
Commission expert Sam Wilson told Chadron radio station KQSK
that the study’s finding of 13 was a snapshot taken during a period
of time rather than proof that a certain number of the big cats
were living in those Panhandle counties.
