    Are they on display? I can't remember seeing them for the life of me. I've been three times and the most recent was only 4 years ago.

    cougars

    The two girls just turned 13 and were originally from Bullen's. They now have a back of house enclosure but are walked daily around the park. This generally occurs later in the afternoon.
