Human caused climate change, wildfires and droughts effect mountain lions by reducing the availability of prey. Wildfires destroy huge stretches of habitat, so mountain lions must wander great distances to find food, sometimes bringing them into close proximity to people. It is essential to protect remaining mountain lion habitat, to build corridors that allow them to move unimpeded by human barriers and teach others to have a peaceful coexistence with the species. Salvador Romero's old-style Mountain-lion (cougar, puma or panther) is carved from found stone to a size of about 4 1/2" long, 3/4" wide and 2 3/8" tall.
