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.

Video slideshow: LM2 revisiting elk kill mentioned in last post. He returns to the kill at 6:00 PM and then again at 9:40 PM, but doesn't appear to feed on it . This may be because he was wary of even the no flash cameras. When he returns at 11:00 PM, he promptly drags the carcass out of the camera's range to feed for the night.
