Episode Details

Vancouver Island is a cougar hotspot—home to 800 to 1,100 of these stealthy big cats, despite making up just 3% of British Columbia. Weighing over 200 pounds and silent but deadly, they purr like house cats but can’t roar. They thrive where deer are abundant, especially on the island’s eastern forests, and shift lower in elevation during winter. With elusive habits and no fixed territories, exact numbers are hard to pin down—but staying alert in the wild is your best bet.
