It's all about timing, the easiest place to do it is in an open area where you know cougars spawn, like the slope that leads down to the river south of Blackwater. Stand on the road, and find a cougar with your trusty binoculars, move towards him in a straight line, always keeping him in sight. Once he sees you, he will crouch and try to circle. They love the surprise pounce. The key is to always face him, when he starts to run at you, crouch down, and knife him AS HE JUMPS. It will neutralize his attack, and if all 3 slashes hit, will leave him limping and open for the coup de grace. Now THAT is hunting!! I have made a hobby of killing cougars like this.
