Nebraska Mountain Lion Hunting Debate | Lincoln News

Nebraska’s Game and Parks Commission is set to vote on mountain lion hunting rules for 2027—despite declining populations and minimal actual threat from these big cats. While they’re considering expanding bobcat hunting areas, mountain lions remain rare hunters with only ten documented hunting-related incidents since 2007. Influenced by coyotes, disease, and natural cycles, bobcat numbers aren’t driven by hunting pressure. With limited public input—mostly from hunters and landowners—the state still invites voices from the public: submit comments online or call in before the August 14 vote. Want to act?
