Last week I wrote about the cougar hoax making its rounds on the Internet. Dozens of people sent me emails of the wildcat allegedly photographed near Mattoon. As I explained a week or so ago, those were not taken in Crittenden County.Again, I have been bombarded this week with photos of a mountain lion allegedly killed near Cadiz. I have ignored this one – in light of the previous faux cat. WPSD-TV in Paducah, however, has taken up the mantle and shot down the recent madness. You can read about their pumping holes into the latest cougar story here.
For goodness sakes, let's quit promoting the craziness by moving these western wildcats across the Web and trying to pass them off as western Kentucky kitties!
