Momentary Distraction - a photo on Flickriver

            A young, wild male Puma (Puma concolor) has a lot on his mind. This cat, called "Simba" by local guides, was on his own for the first time in his life. His mother "Sarmiento" would tolerate him on her territory for a short time. Then he would have to find a new home, and his own territory away from the dominant male in the area. Biologists call this "dispersal." Here Simba looks back at the awkward humans as he enjoyed a quiet moment overlooking the valley where he grew up. He would soon be gone, in search of his own territory and a new life.
