Call for details. Oregon’s population of about 6,000 cougars occupies a wide variety of hab- itats across the state, offering a year- round, readily-accessible hunting op- portunity. Their nocturnal habits and stealthy character make cougars a challenging big game animal to hunt. ODFW wild- life biologists Scott Napoli from the White River Wildlife Area and Herman Biederbeck from the north Coast offer these tips to help you harvest more cou- gars. 1. Ditch the calendar. Winter, after other big game seasons have closed, is a great time to hunt cougar. Damp, snowy ground can make it easier to track cou- gar. Also deer and elk begin to concen- trate in lower elevation areas, becoming major attractions to hungry cougars. 2. Scout, locate, document. Prior to your hunt, spend time in the field scout- ing for cougar the same way an elk hunt- er scouts for elk. Locate cougar signs like tracks (be sure you know what a cougar track looks like), kill sites (cougars cover their kill and return to it later) and even scent markers (a scrape of leaves and twigs that cougars use to mark their ter- ritories with urine and poo). Document what you find on a map or GPS. As you begin to collect data, you might start seeing patterns in how a cougar travels in their territory. 3. Set up trail cameras on ridgelines and game trails to see what’s happening when you’re not there. Even better, fo- cus on canyon areas, where cats like to spend time. 4. Use good quality calls. Predator calling is the best option for targeting cougars and being successful. But be prepared to spend money on a good call. Consider both the source of the sounds they are recording and the quality of the digital playback. D on’t overlook using cat calls. Cou- gars are very terri- torial and S entinel C ottage G rove Middlefield Men’s Club Monday 11/4/2019 Game: 2M Best Ball named to the Honorable Mention Team. North Douglas had six players honored by Skyline coaches.

Call long and hard. Call longer for cats – 45 minutes of continuous calling or more. Twenty minutes of calling now and then may work for some predators like coyote, but it’s not the way to call cougar. 6. Call safely. Cats are quiet and stealthy – you don’t want one creeping up on you while you’re calling. Here are a couple of techniques to stay safe. Call while sitting back-to-back with a buddy. You’ll have a 360 degree view around you and will be able to take turns call- ing as loud and long as you can. Set up with your back to something like a tall canyon wall that will keep a cougar from creeping up behind you. Stay still, espe- cially when using mouth calls. Moving may cause a cougar to think you’re the prey. 7. Consider a moving decoy. They became legal at the beginning of 2019. Set one up and start calling at a kill site or canyon entrance and watch for cou- gar. 8. Don’t overlook the details. Some- time it’s the smallest things that can ruin your hunt. Be quiet. Once you arrive at your hunting site, try to be as stealthy as the cats you’re hunting. Don’t slam the car doors, keep conversation to mini- mum, walk slowly and quietly to your calling site, etc. Manage your scent -- cougars have a keen sense of smell. Where possible, set up downwind of the direction from which you expect a cou- gar to approach, use scent sprays to treat you and your clothes. Take advantage of shade and cover to make yourself harder for a cat to see. 9. Be ready, even if you aren’t neces- sarily cougar hunting. Most cougars are seen and taken by deer and elk hunters. Have a cougar tag with so you can take advantage when a cougar opportunity presents itself. 10. Consider cougar for dinner. Most people don’t know how good cougar meat can be, so it’s worth taking some back strap home and giving it a try. (Al- though you’re not legally required to sal- vage cougar meat.)
