Cougar on the Prowl

Part of an editorial series for Canadian Wildlife Magazine about animals in urban spaces. This one focuses on wild cougars roaming the streets of Victoria,..."in 1992, a cougar snuck downtown and into the parkade at the Empress Hotel. There it lurked like a subterranean prowler beneath the clinking china of High Tea, the wall-mounted tiger-skin in The Bengal Lounge, and the Garden City’s many monuments to civilizing empire." Loved this part of the article! Once I read this I was sold.
