I have some scat i would like tested, Who should i contact? it looks old and is dried up with no scent left in it...This was found on a trail where the New Athens "Mt.Lion" has been spotted, Also talked to the farmer on the phone and i am going to try and get over there this week to get the pictures he has..He reported the sighting and sent the pics to dnr..They say its not enough evidence...I am worried that i will send a sample and wont get an honest answer..Please Help!
