Cougar
Author: Maurice Hornocker
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226353478
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 331
Book Description
The cougar is one of the most beautiful, enigmatic, and majestic animals in the Americas. Eliciting reverence for its grace and independent nature, it also triggers fear when it comes into contact with people, pets, and livestock or competes for hunters’ game. Mystery, myth, and misunderstanding surround this remarkable creature. The cougar’s range once extended from northern Canada to the tip of South America, and from the Pacific to the Atlantic, making it the most widespread animal in the western hemisphere. But overhunting and loss of habitat vastly reduced cougar numbers by the early twentieth century across much of its historical range, and today the cougar faces numerous threats as burgeoning human development encroaches on its remaining habitat. When Maurice Hornocker began the first long-term study of cougars in the Idaho wilderness in 1964, little was known about this large cat. Its secretive nature and rarity in the landscape made it difficult to study. But his groundbreaking research yielded major insights and was the prelude to further research on this controversial species. The capstone to Hornocker’s long career studying big cats, Cougar is a powerful and practical resource for scientists, conservationists, and anyone with an interest in large carnivores. He and conservationist Sharon Negri bring together the diverse perspectives of twenty-two distinguished scientists to provide the fullest account of the cougar’s ecology, behavior, and genetics, its role as a top predator, and its conservation needs. This compilation of recent findings, stunning photographs, and firsthand accounts of field research unravels the mysteries of this magnificent animal and emphasizes its importance in healthy ecosystem processes and in our lives.

Pages : 180
Book Description
A desperate entity trapped on the other side of an active hellmouth pleads for cougar shifter Belle Foye’s help, and she can’t stop herself from running toward it, even though it means putting her own life in danger. As if that weren’t inconvenient enough, Belle’s inner cat’s biological clock is loudly ticking, which means her body is acting in all sorts of ways she wishes it wouldn’t—particularly when it comes to her new babysitter. Former soldier Steven Welch has been tasked with keeping Belle away from the hellmouth at all costs. It’s just his luck that the cat has taken a shine to his human self. Unfortunately, sticking close to her means he has no choice but to confront a fear of the supernatural he’d hoped he left in the Afghan desert. When the pair learns Steven’s own secret paranormal gift could help solve Belle’s problem, their differences collide. Steven insists he’s no hero, but Belle wants to enter the hellmouth and end the trouble it’s brought on her family once and for all. If Belle can’t convince him that she has his back as well as he has hers, she’ll lose her fated mate and the only man she’s ever trusted enough to call “partner.”

Yellowstone Cougars
Author: Toni K. Ruth
Publisher: University Press of Colorado
ISBN: 1607328291
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Yellowstone Cougars examines the effect of wolf restoration on the cougar population in Yellowstone National Park—one of the largest national parks in the American West. No other study has ever specifically addressed the theoretical and practical aspects of competition between large carnivores in North America. The authors provide a thorough analysis of cougar ecology, how they interact with and are influenced by wolves—their main competitor—and how this knowledge informs management and conservation of both species across the West. Of practical importance, Yellowstone Cougars addresses the management and conservation of multiple carnivores in increasingly human-dominated landscapes. The authors move beyond a single-species approach to cougar management and conservation to one that considers multiple species, which was impossible to untangle before wolf reestablishment in the Yellowstone area provided biologists with this research opportunity. Yellowstone Cougars provides objective scientific data at the forefront of understanding cougars and large carnivore community structure and management issues in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, as well as in other areas where wolves and cougars are reestablishing. Intended for an audience of scientists, wildlife managers, conservationists, and academics, the book also sets a theoretical precedent for writing about competition between carnivorous mammals.

Book Description
Cougar shifter Mason Foye is used to getting things he doesn’t want. First, his father died, leaving Mason the heir apparent of the alpha position of a group of mutinous cats. Now, the absentee goddess who created the species is sending him and his brothers on an ill-timed mate hunt. And her message, for once, is clear: convince a stranger to become his mate, or else. When Ellery Colvard embarks on a camping trip with her two best friends, she expects bonding and maybe a little adventure, not to be kidnapped by a supernatural menace for the second time in a year. But this time, she’s nobody’s victim. The witch is prepared to use every trick in her arsenal to escape. But…she’s not entirely sure she’s supposed to. Powerful entities seem to be conspiring to push the two reluctant parties together, but can they trust the magic is real? Because if it isn’t, Mason may be cursed to spend the rest of his days roaming in his four-legged form—a bad deal for a father of an infant son.

Cougars, Panthers, & Mountain Lions: Nature’s Perfect Hunter
Author: Dr. Richard A. NeSmith
Publisher: Applied Principles of Education & Learning
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Most Americans have never seen a cougar in the wild. Their range has continued to shrink during the last 100 years. They are under great environmental stress. According to the 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 see humans as trespassers. There is a difference. The likelihood of being killed by a cougar is one in a billion. However, according to the CDC, the chances of being murdered in the USA in a given year is 1 in 18,989. The data does not justify calling these creatures man-eaters. But they are nature’s perfect hunters, and they deserve our respect and right to co-exist with us. This book will help the reader become better acquainted and educated about North America’s second-largest cat. Be cautious, take heed, and enjoy nature and our wild America.
