Cougars

It should come as no surprise that the cougar is included on our list of the most deadly animals in Canada. It is one of Canada's most dangerous predators and the second-largest wild cat in the Americas. This big cat, often known as a puma, is capable of killing an animal that is four times its size. They have the ability to sprint at 56 km/h, jump 5.5 m vertically, jump 9 m horizontally, and see 130 degrees.


They have retractable claws that only show while they are actively hunting. Cougars rarely pursue their prey despite having amazing ground speed. They prefer to stalk and startle them instead. By biting their prey's throats and breaking their windpipes, they horrifyingly suffocate their victims.


The cougar will also consume almost anything. coyotes, elk, birds, beavers, and more. British Columbia accounts for close to 40% of all cougar attacks on people in North America. Due to their small size, children and adults in a crouch are particularly susceptible to cougar attacks.
