Possible Cougar Sightings on Denman Island

environment · March 2019 · Denman Island

The Wildlife Advisory Committee has received two credible reports of cougar sightings on Denman Island and advises residents to exercise caution when walking trails and wild areas, keep dogs on leash, and keep children close.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
