I've been trying to catch a puma on my Capture pet screen for ages now. Each time I have put my catchers where the puma has been and where it is now. (the first few attempts I didn't know the commplete cycle and was guessing)

The catchers never so much as see the puma even though they are *right on the spot*. They have seen all other 5 creatures (I have a dryad active so more creatures) but the puma isn't even seen let alone chance to catch.

This might not be a bug but it seems fishy to me! I copied the log showing all the other creature/catcher interactions.

shilar, you need to predict where Puma will go on the next cycle, and place your catcher there. As I see now, your Mammal catcher is placed right on the Puma den and Puma is there at this cycle. You're sending the expedition for the next cycle, and on the next cycle the den will be empty - Puma will go to hunt or to drink, and the catcher will see nothing and return with empty hands once more.
