The Cougiiv is the Tiger of the Occident, being the hirgesfc of the cat kii-d found in tlie northern part of the Western Heniisi)hei'<.

It is yet abundant in Xorthern California, Hvegon, Washington, British Columbia, au'l Alaska. It is especially abundant in Xorthern Washington, along the Skagit and Isookstick Rivers, the abundance oi Deer, grouse, rabbits, and tish in the streiinis, furnishing it with a never-failing supply of food; and Here it obtains its greatest development In Cougai and Young, It is a sid)ject of discussion among hnnters as to the numb'-r of young that the Cougai' produces at a birth. The naturalists state thiit the litters usually vary from three to Hve, but from my own personal experience, and from extensive impiiries among other hunters and trappers, I can not corro5)orate this statement. I have never found more than two kittens in a littei- and veiy pretty little.
