Puma concolor (Linnaeus) View in CoL
We did not see this species at Paracou in the course of our fieldwork, but P. Petronelli (personal commun., 1993) told us he had encountered pumas locally on four occasions, twice at night and twice in the daytime. One of the diurnal sightings was of an animal asleep on a high tree limb; another individual was found asleep between the buttresses of a big tree.
