Cougars...On The Hunt

While cougars eat every day, they only hunt once a week.

For the male cougar, they will usually hunt and kill a large animal once every two weeks.  For females raising young, the time frame shrinks to once every three to four days.  Once the kill has been made, the cougar will drag it's kill to a preferred spot, cover it with brush and return over the following days for feeding.
