Not long before sunset we came across this lioness and cubs resting in the long grass. I got quite low to the ground for this to give the appearance of looking through the grass. I think it sort of works, but please let me know what you think (or would change)! / / (Masai Mara – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / /
This lioness was up so early one morning that the dew still clung to her chin. I like the way the cub looks up to her as she stares ahead. / / (Masai Mara – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

This was the first mating action of the morning for these lions, which is usually the most violent (as you can see here)! We were really lucky to find them just after first light while the park was still empty! / / / (Samburu National Park – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

From the highest mountains where the snow doesn’t melt. A predator you have never seen. I, your current reporter, have been able to capture an image of this magnificent animal for you to see. The former reporter, it seems, walked into the pride and joined them for lunch. Back to you George. Are we off the camera now? Good! Get me out of here! He looks hungry. :o) Created from photos I had taken and combined in Photoshop. I had been reading a fantasy science fiction story and had to try something like this. Not quite what I had in mind, but close enough. :o) Too bad I didn’t have this done in time for the Unconventional Artistry challenge. ;o) Sigh… Featured in: Funny Kritters and Top 10 Finish in the “Funny Composites”, ImageWriting
My mother and grandparents have told me that mountain lions were often found in mountain regions and hilly wooded areas in our home state of Arkansas years ago. They are thought to be all gone in these areas due to habitat destruction for forestation and the building of cities nearby. However, ocassionally there are sightings. They have adapted, and keep away from humans. My brother-in-law has a digital camera mounted in the woods where he hunts for deer. It takes pictures randomly so he can learn about the habits of the der he hunts. Early one morning just a few weeks ago, he captured a moutain lion on camera. The cougar (Puma concolor), also known as puma, mountain lion, mountain cat, catamount, or panther, depending on the region, is a mammal of the Felidae family, native to the Americas. This large, solitary cat has the greatest range of any large wild terrestrial mammal in the Western Hemisphere, extending from Yukon in Canada to the southern Andes of South America. An adaptable, generalist species, the cougar is found in every major American habitat type. It is the second heaviest cat in the American continents after the jaguar, and the fourth heaviest in the world, along with the leopard, after the tiger, lion, and jaguar, although it is most closely related to smaller felines. A capable stalk-and-ambush predator, the cougar pursues a wide variety of prey. Primary food sources include ungulates such as deer, elk, and bighorn sheep, as well as domestic cattle, horses, and sheep, particularly in the northern part of its range, but it also hunts species as small as insects and rodents. Moreover, it prefers habitats with dense underbrush and rocky areas for stalking, but it can live in open areas. The cougar is territorial and persists at low population densities. Individual territory sizes depend on terrain, vegetation, and abundance of prey. While it is a large predator, it is not always the dominant species in its range, as when it competes for prey with other predators such as the jaguar, gray wolf, American Black Bear, and the grizzly bear. It is a reclusive cat and usually avoids people. Attacks on humans remain rare, despite a recent increase in frequency. Due to excessive hunting following the European colonization of the Americas, and continuing human development of cougar habitat, populations have dropped in most parts of its historical range. In particular, the cougar was extirpated in eastern North America, except an isolated sub-population in Florida; the animal may be recolonizing parts of its former eastern territory, such as Maine and northern Michigan where there have been recent sightings. With its vast range, the cougar has dozens of names and various references in the mythology of the indigenous Americans and in contemporary culture. The Cougar has recently made a comeback in the state of Wyoming, where it presently has the largest population in North America
