Cougar Species Information

The cougar, also known as the mountain lion or puma, is scientifically known as Puma concolor. This versatile predator is one of the largest wild cats native to the Americas and can be found from the Canadian Yukon all the way down to the southern Andes in South America. Cougars are highly adaptable and thrive in a variety of habitats, including forests, mountains, deserts, and coastal areas.

The mountain lion has one of the widest ranges of any terrestrial mammal in the Western Hemisphere. The big cat species is found throughout North and South America, from Canada to the southern tip of Chile. In the United States, cougars are primarily found in the western states, although small populations exist in Florida and parts of the Midwest. They prefer habitats with dense underbrush and rocky outcrops for stalking prey, but they can also be found in open areas if sufficient cover and prey are available.

Mountain lions are the second-largest in the Americas, following the jaguar. Adult male cougars typically weigh between 115 and 220 pounds (52 to 100 kg), while females are smaller, weighing between 64 and 141 pounds (29 to 64 kg). In terms of body length, males measure around 5 to 8 feet (1.5 to 2.4 meters) from nose to tail, while females range from 3.3 to 7.2 feet (1 to 2.2 meters).

Cougars are solitary and territorial animals, primarily active at dawn and dusk, though they can hunt at any time of day. They are excellent climbers and can leap great distances, making them highly efficient hunters. Cougars rely on stealth and their incredible jumping ability to ambush prey from behind. They have a diverse diet that mainly consists of deer, but they will also hunt smaller mammals such as raccoons, rabbits, and even porcupines. In areas where deer are scarce, cougars may prey on livestock and other domestic animals.

Cougars play an essential role in their ecosystems by controlling prey populations, and their presence indicates a healthy, functioning environment. As one of the most adaptable and widespread of the big cats, the cougar continues to be a vital part of the natural heritage of the Americas. As such, many hunters and taxidermy enthusiasts love investing in a cougar taxidermy mount as a center piece for their North American collection.
