Have you ever heard a cougar purring? Kai is happy to demonstrate any chance he can get! With the ability to purr, chirp, meow, and scream, there are always fun conversations to be had with him. This species has the largest geographic range of any wild mammal, in the western hemisphere. They also hold the Guiness record for the animal with the greatest number of names- over 40 in the english language alone! | Panther Ridge Conservation Center

Kai is showing off that cougar scream and, of course, his purring. Cougars can make a wide variety of vocalizations, including purrs, hisses, growls, screams, chirps, meows, and wails. As soon as Kai sees his keepers, he begins screaming at us for attention and treats! Kai is still in need of a grand benefactor to help sponsor his care. If interested in becoming one, please reach us at 561-795-8914 or email pantheridge@aol.com 🙏 #pantherridge #endangeredspecies #education #conservation #nonprof
