FYI, Vancouver Island has the highest population density of cougars in the world. This includes mountain lions, pumas, panthers, etc, all the same big cat by other names. They are so elusive though. I lived on the Island for nearly six years, during which time I mountaineered and hiked all over the place, and never saw one. Saw lots of black bears though.
- Fricken 3y agoThere has been a total of 126 cougar attacks, 27 of which were fatal in North America in the last 100 years. I wouldn't worry too much. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_cougar_attacks_in_North_America https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_cougar_attacks...
