Male Puma Stare down

Patagonia, Chile

A large, dominant male puma leers from behind a clump of scrub in the steppe of Patagonia, Chile. Though he is rather large, he laid obscured until he lifted his head peering out. They are masters at blending in and hiding. Pumas rely on this skill as they are ambush predators, stalking game and lying in wait, until they are close enough to pounce and secure their catch.

Pumas are solitary animals, particularly the males, tolerating other pumas only during mating.
