This post can only come from our Co-Founder Tom Mangelsen. His devotion, passion, and unwavering commitment to mountain lions and every carnivore and omnivore from wolves to grizzly bears is a testament to a man who will 'never, ever, give up.' Tom inspires us to be strong and relentless advocates. When this gets harder, Tom gets tougher. Cougars need all the voices they can get to retain their place as ecological architects of a healthy environment.Today is National Cougar Day—a moment to honor one of North America’s most elusive and misunderstood wild cats.

Cougars don’t seek the spotlight. They move through the wild in near silence, shaping ecosystems with their presence alone. That’s what makes them so powerful—and so vulnerable.

I’ll never forget the winter of 1999, when a mother mountain lion and her three cubs emerged from the shadows and stayed for weeks on the National Elk Refuge in Jackson. Watching them changed everything. It led us to found The Cougar Fund, and to fight for a future where these incredible cats still have space to roam.

If you believe in wild places—you believe in cougars.
