Description
A Mountain lions carries it precious kitten by mouth. The cougar (Puma concolor), also known as the puma, mountain lion, panther, or catamount, is a largest cat of the family Felidae native to the America. Mountain lion mothers carry their young in their mouths when they are newborns to move them from place to place, and to protect them because they are fragile. The babies are born with thier eyes and ears closed. If the mother feels any threat at all it will move them to an alternate site. Mountain lion kittens weigh about eighteen ounces.
Baby cougars are called cubs or kittens and remain with their mother for up to the first two years of their lives. When the cub reaches 2 months of age, the spots begin to fade and the cub starts to grow into its adult coloring. By 6 months, it's difficult to see the spots, and all spots fade completely within 2 1/2 years after birth.When the eyes open between 5 and 19 days after being born, the eyes are blue due to lack of pigmentation. About 5 months of age, the cub's eyes turn brown and remain brown throughout the cougar's life. This is a digital creative painting from my original photograph. ****************Thanks to the following group administrators for featuring my mountain lion image called Mountain Lion and Baby !****************Images That Excite You, Wildlife ONE A DAY, ABC GROUP, !
