A Panther on the Prowl for Prey
In this intense photograph, a deer is in a life-and-death situation with this mountain lion. These large cats rely heavily on deer for their diet, and a chase like this is a regular occurrence. The picture doesn’t show the chase’s details, but the tension in the air suggests it’s a high-speed one.
Deer are speedy animals and can run faster than mountain lions, but it’s only for short distances. Mountain lions, on the other hand, have both strength and endurance, so they can outrun and eventually catch their prey. So even though the deer is putting up a fight, it’s ultimately at the mercy of the predator.
