Cougars have many different names like catamount,mountain lion and puma etc.Having 40 names in english they have the most names of any animal.Cougars are nocturnal.They hunt vicunas,guanacos,llamas and deer.They weigh 60-100 kgs.They are 1.6-1.9m long and have a height of 70-90cm.They have competition from ursus americanus the american black bear.There are 6-7 types of cougars.Cougars can climb mountains easily.They also have competition from wolves.Cougars live in north america.Cougars run at a speed of 64 to 80 km.They are solitary but are known to share prey.They live in forests,grasslands and mountains.There are 50,000 cougars in the world.They are ranked as least concern in the IUCN red list.Cougars are mostly brown with no patterns but occasionally they have spots or stripes,sometimes they are even white or black in colour.Pumas first lived in eurasia then they migrated to north america through beringia.Since there were huge predators like the american lion(panthera leo atrox) and smilodon populator they lived in caves where they were not seen.They hunted in the night and this is how they did it.They would first hunt then they would take the fur off the animal cover it in fur to avoid scavengers and then bring their cubs to eat it.They still do it sometimes like this today.But now that humans made smilodon and american lion extinct.Pumas hunt in the open plains.

Cougar, protecting her cubs, stalks this guy for 6 minutes.

Very similar to a cheetah when they're trying to bluff another carnivore.

I haven't seen that behavior from a cheetah, but now you have me curious. In this case, she was clearly content as long as he continued to move further from her cubs, throwing in the occasional bluff charge to remind him to continue moving. She seemed a little small, but she is a really good mom. In the beginning, her cubs initially joined her in pursuing him, in fact one of them was the closest to him when it all started. She made sure he was a long way from her cubs, though, following him for quite some distance.

They'll do that same stomp and charge, I've seen them use it while trying to intimadate hyena and dogs.
It's interesting to see a cougar mother utilize it as well.

Not sure if you've seen that video of the three cheetah killed by two lions. That video shows a great example of exactly what you refer to, except in that instance it clearly did not have the desired affect.
