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?
