Re: What

Gorgeous indeed. Not very big, most likely the size of a dog (around 40kg), but deadly!
:)
Too bad have to see it locked inside a jail at the zoo...

Re: Free Puma!

Unfortunately if this animal gets free, it won't survive on the nature, it has been in a cage since his first month of life.
And the ones that still prevail in nature since birth, eventually get killed by humans...

Sad...
