Here is the link to the pdf copy of our latest newsletter, the CRF Update - http://www.easterncougar.org/newltr_pdf/crfnew_Nov10.pdf . 


In the past two years, there have been confirmations of cougars in Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Missouri and Quebec.  These confirmations, along with management policies for cougars in these states and province, will be addressed in the next newsletter.  Outside of Indiana, which is covered in this issue, we are not aware of any new confirmations in the eastern United States. 

Thank you for your support with your dues and donations.  All of us are volunteers.  We would welcome donations of your time and expertise.  Among other things, we could use help in office-related responsibilities such as distribution of newsletters in print and via the Internet.
