“cougar”

After purchasing an over-the-counter archery-elk tag for an area near Gunnison, Colo., Florida resident Trevor Brown experienced quite the high-country initiation for a first-time bowhunter.

With the cat only 12 yards away, and much closer to her brother, 16-year-old Amaya Simpson nocked an arrow and fired. The cougar is the first animal she’s taken with her bow, which she tunes herself.

The best memory of a hunt may lie in the finest details carried back home.

A hiker found dead near Mount Hood National Forest was killed in a suspected a cougar attack. If confirmed, wildlife officials said it would be the first fatal cougar attack in Oregon’s history.

Friday the 13th turned out to be the best day in January to hunt a Utah cat with a Ruger revolver.

Until someone runs over Bigfoot, no roadkill will equal the fame achieved by a 3-year-old male cougar that got SUV’d in June 2011 near Milford, Conn., on the Wilbur Cross Parkway.

A California woman had a close call earlier this month when a big cat came crashing through the window of her suburban home.

The Iowa DNR was forced to kill the state’s first confirmed female mountain lion following reports of livestock depredation.

In western Canada’s mountains, great game and hunting traditions come together.
