![]() ![]() Ho-Ho-Kus Police said reports of a mountain lion sighting near their border with Hillsdale Wednesday were also unverified. Residents passed rumors that a sighting of a 125-pound mountain lion in the area had been confirmed, but police said they had been unable to verify the claims. Tuesday, a resident reported to police that a mountain lion was seen near Garden State Parkway exit 168 in Washington Township. The sightings were made last week but not reported until April 30, so there was not much police could do at the time but notify the board of health, the state and animal control, Regino said. The first local reports came from Westwood residents who said they saw a large cat in Pascack Brook County Park, according to Police Chief Frank Regino. The animal may not even have been a cat, according to animal control officials. The sightings have not been confirmed, according to police. Several area residents have reported seeing a big cat - possibly a mountain lion or bobcat - around Westwood, Washington Township and elsewhere over the past few days. ![]()
