Mountain lions in Giles County?





The buzz today is of possible mountain lions in Giles County. Supposedly they're in the Big Stoney Creek area of the county. The photos here are of a lion who came to somebody's back porch supposedly, "looking for food" and reportedly "very agitated." The real thing? I don't know. But be careful out there...

This is a hoax. These cougar pictures have been floating around the Internet for a while and were taken in 2001 or 2002.

See the Roanoke Times story:

. . . and here's the Urban Legend site with the same pictures and a lot more information:
