You know what's really weird....people have actually considered roping
wild cougars to be a sport. Zane Grey wrote a book about it. It was
called something like "Roping Cougars in the Grand Canyon." He and the
hunter drove them up trees with dogs, trussed them up (these were
fully-conscious cougars; this was in the days before tranquilizer
darts!)slung them over a horse, and shipped the off to zoos.....
