Mountain Lion Spotted In Sawyer

(Sawyer, ND) — The Ward County Sheriff’s Office and North Dakota Game and Fish are asking you to be on the lookout for a mountain lion after someone reporting seeing the animal in Sawyer. The agencies haven’t confirmed the sighting but warn if you spot a mountain lion, “back off slowly” and to remember that the animal is probably more afraid of you than you are of them. If you’re able to safely get a picture of it, you can submit it to the Game and Fish Department, which will help them confirm the animal’s presence.
