Cougars, Panthers, & Mountain Lions: Nature's Perfect Hunter

By Richard A. NeSmith

Book Overview

Most Americans have never seen a cougar in the wild. Their range has continued to shrink over the last 100 years, and they are under great environmental stress. According to Defenders of Wildlife, the Florida panther is one of the country's most endangered mammals. There is no doubt that cougars are dangerous predators; however, they rarely see humans as prey. They do, however, see humans as trespassers, and there is a difference. The likelihood of being killed by a cougar is one in a billion. In contrast, according to the CDC, the chances of being murdered in the USA in any given year are 1 in 18,989. These data do not justify calling cougars man-eaters. Yet, they are nature's perfect hunters and deserve our respect and the right to coexist with us. This book will help the reader become better acquainted with and educated about North America's second-largest cat. Be cautious, take heed, and enjoy nature and our wild America.
