For anyone who is interested in the return of the mountain lion to 
suburbia, I highly recommend reading David Baron's "The Beast in the 
Garden". It chronicles the return of the big cats to Boulder, Co. and 
is an absolutely fascinating read. (I am neither the author, the 
author's mother nor legal representation for the cats) I've just been 
fascinated by cougars ever since spotting one in rural central Ohio 
last summer (despite Ohio's "official" stance that there are no cougars 
here) and have read everything I can about them. If you ride in Big Cat 
Country, you should educate yourself about them. If you are ever 
confronted with a potentially threatening/attacking cougar, don't 
retreat and don't "play dead". Most cougar attack survivors had to 
fight tooth and nail to *be* a survivor.
