Cougar at Jake's pre-school.

A few months ago when we were enrolling Jake in pre-school for this coming September, the teacher told us that the kids often go outside and feed the goats. A couple goats neighboured the pre-school.

A couple days ago in the paper I read that a cougar killed two goats in Maple Ridge. Conservation officers were hunting it. Guess what? It's the same two goats that Jake would have been feeding.

The owner came out at 9:30am in the morning to feed them and they were dead. She saw a cougar poke its head out of her barn.

Later, a professional houndsmen treed the cougar with his dogs and they shot and killed it. The city wanted it killed because they didn't want a dangerous cougar hanging around a preschool and daycare. Well done city!
