Learning to levitate (cougar photo)



This cougar mom is doing amazing things to reach the beaver carcass up high in the tree. We use frozen beaver carcasses to attract wolverines to our sites, so we can collect their DNA, to study their populations in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Sometimes other carnivores, like this cougar/puma/mountain lion family, find the bait and try to eat it. This photo was taken using a remote wildlife camera.

A long bout of a female puma caterwauling to attract a mate. Female pumas frequently use caterwauling to attract mates:  http://journals.plos.org/plosone/arti... In this case, I documented her traveling with a male puma 8 hours later.
