How does a Puma hunt?
The Puma has muscular hind legs and large paws designed for powerful leaping. From a standing position, the puma has been known to jump 15 feet vertically. With a running start, the animal can easily clear 40 feet horizontally. Pumas use this incredible skill to hunt and, quietly sneaking up on prey until they are within pouncing distance and then giving a swift and fatal bite to the neck.
