The cougar (also known as the Mountain Lion and Puma, depending on locality) is native to the Americas and has the largest range of all mammals in the western hemisphere, ranging from the Canadian Yukon to the southern Andes in South America.

The cougar stalks its prey to within two or three great leaps, then launches a lightning-fast charge to take down its target. While large and powerful, the cougar is nevertheless not always the apex predator in its range, and has been known to yield its kill to black bears, grizzly bears and packs of wolves. It is an elusive, reclusive and solitary animal and mostly avoids people.
