We are conducting surveys, monitoring, and research on cougars (puma, mountain lion) on the Ladder Ranch in south-central New Mexico. Here, cougars are of particular interest given their effects on state-endangered desert bighorn sheep and other valuable big game. These projects are also resources for training and education, most notably through the Cougar Field Workshop.
This photograph, taken three days after the bloody photograph below, shows what appears to be a large puncture wound in LM1's right cheek. There also appears to be some swelling. As long as the wound is allowed to drain LM1 should recover without complication.
