Native to the Americas, these large felids prefer habitats with dense underbrush and rocky areas for stalking, but they can also live in open areas. Cougars are solitary and territorial animals that roam over large ranges to hunt prey such as deer, elk, and other smaller mammals. Despite their wide range, their presence is rarely felt by humans due to their secretive nature. Conservation efforts are crucial to maintain their habitats and population levels as they face the threats of habitat loss and conflict with humans.
