 Effects of Clearcutting on Carnivores
White-tailed deer appear to be a favorite food of cougars in the eastern United States.
Although we know of no papers regarding the effects of even-aged management on cougars, we know from the almost hemisphere-wide distribution of the species and their large spatial requirements that they occur in a wide variety of habitats.
A review of field studies by Koehler and Brittell (1990) of lynx and snowshoe hares in north-central Washington indicated that prescribed fires, logging (clearcutting) and timber thinning created young stands needed as habitat for the cat’s prey, snowshoe hares.

Cougars stalk (and sometimes ambush) their prey and characteristically carry or drag an uneaten portion to cover where they cover it with leaves and twigs (16).
Cougars apparently can stand as much cold as a deer, as evidenced by the fact that they occur as far north and at the same or higher elevations as deer (06).
The amount of space a resident cougar requires is a function of the vegetation-topography/prey density-vulnerability complex (08,17) and the maximum number of resident males and females is fixed by these requirements.
