This is from one of our friends that live in Cooble Hill, just over the Malahat here on the island.

"thought you might like to see these pictures of 2 cougars that were caught and tranquilized in our back yard at the weekend. The mother had died and the babies ( about 6 months old ) had come down into civilization to hunt because they had not learned to hunt for deer etc. Sadly, they caught several cats in the neighbourhood including one of ours ( Basil for those of you who know are crazy household of animals!) so that was hard to take. However, there was great excitement in the area and all our neighbours came out to watch. They are hoping to send them up north to a shelter where they will be raised until they are old enough to go back into the wild."
