I am seriously considering it, but it I am going to wait a bit. Since I am approaching 2 years remived from TPWD, I am going to start sharing some of my goofier, non-mountain lion related stories. I have always had a knack for finding myself in odd situations, my current job just takes it to a whole new level. My supervisor has recently been joking about chaining me to the desk, and removing Google Earth from my computer.

Back in May, while working a nature festival (just wrapped up doing a nature walk with kids) I had British guy walk up and ask if I was a cop. "No, but is there something I can help you with?" "See that black Jeep Liberty, my girlfriend is trying to commit suicide in there right now". So biologist got to flip to emt and temporary incident lead.

I spend a lit of time alone in the woods throughout South Dallas, trust me, I find all sorts of interesting things, people and animals.

But for real I am curious also.

The small ribs closest to the stomach. Felines don't have the molars to grind or cut through bone, they cut and shear off chunks of meat. Oddly enough, your omnivores, canines and bears, have a much better set up for gnawing and grinding bones. So if the rib is gnawed on, or is gone, you trend canine. If the rib is there and basically undamaged, then you lean feline.
