Relaurain.
Obviously you are new to Michigan... The only cougars in Michigan have to be sited and confirmed by the DNR. Numerous reports from citizens over the years. DNR tells them they are full of it.
Typical DNR statement
"Mr. or Mrs. Relaurain, Thank you for your inquiry regarding large cats in Michigan. But you are not a trained wildlife biologist like I am. Therefore we believe you took your submitted pictures at the Detriot Zoo and superimposed your backyard into the picture. Signed DNR"
DNR still denies cougars are in the lower peninsula.
I think any normal person in Michigan will believe you though. Including the lady that hit one with her car last year. Even the hair DNA came back as a cougar.
End of my scarcasm. Now to comment on your post.
Yes cougars are serious. Many, many reports from western states of them attacking pets, children and adults. Typically they don't run away from people. They hide and then pounce on them. I would keep my eyes open.
Oh, and if you shoot one attacking your family, you better make sure you are 1 inch from death, or the DNR will say you were not justified and were killing wildlife.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
