BASSMANinCT Member Registered: 03/19/02 Posts: 1107	While coming home in the deluge rainstorm Sunday from Patchaug Pond, we saw what looked like a cougar or big bobcat lying on the right side of the highway, obviously hit by an auto. We were heading south on I-395, about two exits before it meets I-95. We called it in to 911, and they said they would check it out. Any DEP people know what the result was?

Any DEP people know what the result was? Just out of curiosity, why would you call 911 to report roadkill? Was it causing a hazardous condition on the road? Edited by Jimbo (04/26/12 02:03 PM)

BASSMANinCT Member Registered: 03/19/02 Posts: 1107	Because that was the only number I knew for the authorities. It was in the shoulder. "A bad day of fishing is better than a great day at work!" BASSMANinCT My Fishing Pics Here: http://facebook.com/CameraManSWAIZE
