Cougars (Puma concolor) are large, predatory cats found in North and South America.
History
During the 9th century some bandit groups in England kept cougars locked up in cages. Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir encountered cougars during her travels in London, Tonnastadir, and Vinland.[1]
In the 18th century, when Kanien'kehá:ka Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton learned a cougar was attacking children performing rite-of-passage ceremonies in the valley outside his village, he successfully hunted and killed the cougar.[2] In 1773, a white cougar began prowling the Davenport Homestead. Connor and Myriam tracked the animal, causing it to flee into Norris' mine. Connor entered it to draw out the animal, and Myriam shot and killed it before it could pounce and harm him.[3]
