"Mountain lions may not be widely thought of as hanging out in trees, except perhaps in an attempt to escape a pack of hunting dogs. But like most cats they are excellent climbers and will often use a leafless tree as a lookout tower for surveying their territory, whether looking for potential prey or predators. I had the pleasure of watching a captive cougar leaping repeatedly into and out of just such a tree, and he looked so graceful and powerful and regal up there on his perch that I was moved to capture the feeling in bronze." - Rosetta
