Cougar shot by police in Chicago!!!!

[Redeye]

A few months ago Wisconsin DNR officials checked on a reported cougar sighting in southern Wisconsin. Blood and urine samples checked out that the cougar was a male and also wild. There has been some speculation that the Chicago cougar may have been the same one. Too bad if it is.
