U.P. cougar sighting makes ripple in Midwest news

The debate over cougars wandering this far east is hot and heavy again after a radio-collared cougar from the western states was seen in the U.P. on a trail camera.

The image, recorded on Sept. 8 and announced Tuesday, clearly shows a cougar walking right in front of the camera.
