There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Really interesting size comparison. Here some information that I've find
Adult black bears are usually between 1.4 and 2 meters long with a height at the withers between 1 and 1.3 meters. Body weight can vary significantly depending on the subspecies, sex, age, and time of year. Females can weigh from 40 to 180 kg, while the weight of males varies between 70 and 280 kg.
The Cougar: Height: 60 - 90 cm (Adult, At the shoulder) and Length: Male: 2.4 m (Adult), Female: 2 m (Adult)
Here in Argentina usually people finds cougars. They're really very good hunters and often kills cows, sheep. Those animals are the livestock of the people who live in Patagonia
Have you visited Patagonia?
Not yet. I visited some others places of Argentina,But I never I've visited the Patagonia.
Theres are variety of animals. Definitely an awesome place which someday I would like to go.
Its on my list as well, I hear it's beautiful.
The Patagonia it's really awesome. I have seen a lot of documentary from that area. The Cougars are truly awesome felines their skills to hunt and how they do the impossible to survive and adapt to everything. The best of Argentina are the provinces and small towns. I was fortunate to visit at least more than 5 small towns and fields in consecutive years. A excellent experience!
The day you visit there you will not regret
