LAKE GEORGE, N.Y. (WIVB) - State wildlife experts are now confirming the first case of a mountain lion in New York in years.
DNA has linked a cougar that was hit and killed by a car this past June in Connecticut to droppings found last year in Lake George. It's believed the mountain lion was born in South Dakota and traveled more than a-thousand miles.
