Saskatchewan cougar weighed 84 kg after being hunted:
 *This image is copyright of its original author A large cougar pictured in a photo circulating on social media was caught by a licensed trapper just south of Meadow Lake, Sask., in late December according to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment. "It was a male cougar about 186 pounds, (it's) unknown how old the cougar was ... it's quite a large cougar and definitely an adult. It was very healthy," conservation officer Darly Minter said in an interview. https://saskatoon.ctvnews.ca/mobile/colo...ipId104062

Interesting study in the Peruvian Amazon on the wild Puma's behavior in front of the mirror.
Not all pumas are tawny (red, brown, yellow or orange). See this grey cougar (apparently a Chilean or southwest South American cougar (Puma concolor puma / concolor)) in a zoo, by Chucao, 23rd of November, 2011:

Ingo Arndt: " The pumas in Patagonia’s Torres del Paine area can feed on a very good population of guanacos. This sequence shows a female puma hunting a chulengo (young guanaco). "
First time I see this sequence , though it isn't a recent one. But it's spectacular to illustrate the puma's predatory abilities...
