#Throwbackthursday to working with these beautiful creatures

Puma, mountain lion, cougar, panther…these cats have over 40 different names! They have the widest range of any large wild terrestrial mammal in the Western hemisphere.

Least concern on the IUCN red list. Their threats include habitat loss and fragmentation, and killing of their wild prey (ungulates e.g. deer).
