Not only to see Cougars but from what I've heard from others who've been there, Patagonia is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. It's also a place for active travelers with it's hiking and kayaking through the Glaciers, so it's definitely a place that interests me.
But to be honest, my first choice was Alaska to see Grizzlies or maybe the Arctic to see Polar Bears but both options are incredibly expensive.
I still hope to see either, so if anyone has any other options on how to see them in the wild, let me know.

Any other ideas are welcomed as well, I'm just tossing around some things at the moment and maybe one of you has another option I'm not aware of.
Thanks

Hey @Pckts  I have been living in the south of Chile for more than a year now and I have done the whole Chilean Patagonia stretch (Starting with Carretera Austral) and also been to Tierra del Fuego on the Argentinean side. 

If you are expecting to see Cougars then you are gonna be disappointed mostly. They are rarely seen. However, It's definitely one of the most beautiful places on earth as you said and I can confirm that. So if you can make yourself content without a Cougar sighting then don't think twice about visiting Patagonia. The best time is January-February. 

And apart from it, I would suggest going to Bhutan or the Himalayan side of India or Nepal. The people are amazing and the landscapes are breathtaking as well. Most importantly they are different from the other parts of the country. Btw, Bhutan is simply a magical country.

Anyways, PM if you want to talk about any experiences in details. I hope others can suggest some places as well around the world. I am interested to know people's experiences as well. Reply
