The big cat was reported on Dec. 26 around Blenheim Street between 26th and 36th Avenues.

It’s far from wilderness areas but close to Pacific Spirit Regional Park , which is bounded by busy neighbourhoods and the Georgia Strait .

Cougars are good swimmers and earlier this year , a sighting on Bowen Island prompted its municipal government to warn residents.
