This dramatic March 1915 Field & Stream cover captures the intense standoff between predator, prey, and hunter. A powerful cougar crouches high on a sturdy tree branch, snarling with claws and teeth bared, as a pack of baying hounds leap from below. In the distance, a pair of hunters on horseback observe the tense moment beneath a bright mountain sky. The golden tones of the open terrain and the sweeping backdrop of mountain peaks evoke a gripping snapshot of early 20th-century adventure and the raw encounters of the hunt.
