I agree way to many lions in the 4 corners area. Maybe we can give them to CO_GUY
Hell, we'll take anything but more masses of humanity!

.....Nuisance animals can be dealt with most of the time without fatal results for the animal. Dangerous animals are a different story and hear lies the problem.

We have lots of cats and little humanity in the four corners area. I have moved away and now live in the city and I can sympathize with you. Where I live now is the fastest growing area in the USAHell, we'll take anything but more masses of humanity!
...Killing five cats....big deal....they aren't on any endangered listing that know of........take a bunch more...please....
From what I've heard, and it's just that, hear say, cats that have been moved just go back home. Works well on bears but not lions.This will always be a controversial subject and there is no one correct answer to the problem.

In some areas trapping and relocating works well, especially if the animal is indoctrinated to believe the residential area as a bad place. some states like Maine use dogs and non lethal shot shells to re indoctrinate them with good success.
Most of the time people are at fault for leaving food out or even feeding
animals because they want to see them. Feeding deer is common, but when predators become aware that there is food on the hoof that is easy pickings predators can become a problem.
In the South it is the same with Alligators. People feed the cute little beast and then one day a 10 footer shows up and he wants his share. normally it ends up being the loss of there pet.
I live next to several hundred acres of woods and everything from squirrels to hogs and deer live there. We solved some of the problems with cyan pepper others were trapped and hosed down (They didn't like it and don't hang around any more). We also have a snake problem from time to time and only spare the non poisonous ones that take care of most rodents) they avoid the weed eater treatment.
Small children add a new level of preservation to the problem, and normally the final solution may be the only option. Sad but true.
