Cougar

Near threatened
Cougars (also known as Puma or Mountain Lions) live where there is abundant prey, from sea level to 10,000 feet (3,050 m) elevations. They can jump from the ground to a height of 18 feet (5.5 m). Their favorite prey is deer, elk, moose, peccary and bighorn sheep. They cover their kill with leaves and visit for additional meals later. Their main predators are humans and other mountain lions. The life span is approximately 12 years in the wild and over 20 years in captivity.
