Cougar caught on trail cam?

Sure looks like a cougar in frame 16!

maybe a house cat named Cougar. Keep in mind, 80% of all cougar sightings are not. This one is to small, tail is to short, and in the last frame looks like the neighbors cat. ;-} kw

The house cat gives better perspective of the bigger one. Note the times each appeared: hours apart. The flash did wash out coloration, for sure. We see cougar tracks regularly and lost our cat, Ali a couple weeks ago.
