  1. Cougars in Western Australia

    Orphan date February 2009 The premise that there were cougar s in Western Australia was widely believed during the 1970s. There were two theories as to how they were introduced. The most popular theory was that United States servicemen brought four cougar kittens to Western Australia during World War II they eventually grew too big for captivity, and were released, two at Fremantle, Western Australia Fremantle and two at Bunbury, Western Australia Bunbury . The other theory is that cougars escaped from a circus that was involved in an accident between Bridgetown, Western Australia Bridgetown and Nannup, Western Australia Nannup around 1961. This latter theory was often used in support of the allegation that cougars were responsible for the deaths of around 2000 sheep in the Duranillin, Western Australia Duranillin area in the late 1970s. ref name Long 1988 cite book first J. L. last Long year 1988 title Introduced birds and mammals in Western Australia 2nd Edition publisher Agriculture Protection Board of Western Australia ref These various theories received much attention in 1979, including numerous media mentions, and a debate on the issue in Parliament of Western Australia parliament .
