Have you ever wondered how the cougar in the main hallway got to CMJH? once upon a time, a man named Gary Tinnison was hunting for deer, and he was confronted by a frightening cougar. He shot the cougar in order to save his life.

Gary froze the cougar in his freezer because he wanted to donate it, but he had no idea where he could! Then Gary found out that there was a new school being built called Cougar Mountian Junior High.

Gary was friends with a man at Peter's Taxidermy, so they fixed up the wonderful, yet scary, cougar for CMJH. Then, he met up with Mr. Anderson to get the cougar approved, and it was approved!

Special thanks to Gary Tinnison, who donated the cougar;Don Wilde, who built the cougar's case; Newton Betts, who was the coordinator of all this; and Pere's Taxidermy, who stuffed the cougar. All of these people donated their time and effort for CMJH!
