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.

CHART FOR MODERN RECORDS OF COUGAR WEIGHTS - PATAGONIA


*This image is copyright of its original author

It appears that the males consistently average around 70 kg in the region. For the two males under 70 kg captured in Laguna Azul, Chile, and the one from Monte Leon, Argentina, age is not provided and they may represent young adults of around 4 years of age.
A lot of females from the Elbroch et al. were subadults at the moment of capture, therefore the average of 35.6 kg might not be accurate for adult females from that particular population.
