Re: Mountain Lions in San Antonio?

It is my understanding that Black Bears prefer a more humid climate and will shy away from the "desert" type environment around SA and the Hill Country. I could be wrong, though. When I lived in Louisiana, a sugar cane farmer friend of mine was shocked to see a Black Bear on one of his farms and went to his house, got a shotgun and shot it. Two weeks later, Federal Wildlife and Fisheries came down and asked him questions about the incident and arrested him. I don't know what came of that.
