So really dogs are the way to go unless you happen to spot one, keep track of it or know the location it stays, get a tag and hope to see it again.

Damn that's a big cat!!! [Help]

We always seem to call a cat or two when were Turkey hunting. The cats must love Turkeys as well!

Yep, turkey call brings them in for sure. Most lion/people encounters are when turkey hunting. That's when I had my extremely close call.

Just drive 285 between Conifer and Pine Junction, I've got 2 with my truck over the last several years.

How about the old fashion way?

On the note of tracking Lions.

The tracks will not have claw marks unless they are in mud.

Dog tracks will have claw marks and are about the same size.
