Beautiful but deadly. The occasional mountain lion is spotted in my area. Scary thought.

The reason I am so short is because a puma scared about 5 years growth out of me by dropping out of a tree in front of my horse.

I had a great Puma long-sleeved T-shirt in high school. Loved that thing.

I recall them being found occasionally outside the offices I worked out on a ranch neat Bakersfield.

When I left a building in the afternoon, I always looked up to see if there was one on the rooftop that was anxious to make me their dinner that day.
