Warm Light, Cool Shadows - Cougar By Matthew Hillier

Warm Light, Cool Shadows - Cougar by Matthew Hillier

An excellent stalk-and-ambush predator, the cougar pursues a wide variety of prey. Primary food sources include ungulates such as deer, elk, moose, and bighorn sheep, as well as domestic cattle, horses and sheep, particularly in the northern part of its range. It will also hunt species as small as insects and rodents. This cat prefers habitats with dense underbrush and rocky areas for stalking, but can also live in open areas. The cougar is territorial and survives at low population densities. Individual territory sizes depend on terrain, vegetation, and abundance of prey. While large, it is not always the apex predator in its range, yielding to the jaguar, gray wolf, American black bear, and grizzly bear. It is reclusive and usually avoids people. Fatal attacks on humans are rare, but have been trending upward in recent years as more people enter their territory.

Warm Light, Cool Shadows - Cougar by Matthew Hillier is available for sale as a signed and numbered limited edition giclee canvas with a 24 x 48 image size priced at $895 unframed.
