Trackers found this 5yrs old male puma at 12:30pm, we went and saw it lying in a bedding area inside a roadside trench. For 5 hours it slept and was out of sight. At 5:30pm, he woke up and took a slow stroll along the hill, stopping from time to time to groom itself, roll around, rub his face on multiple calafate bushes, make scrapes with his paws and peed. He then took a 90 degree turn, calmly crossed the concrete road between a crowd of 20 something people, and vanished among the tall grass and bushes. The trackers said a female was on the same route the day before, so he is likely responding to her scent marks and following where she went. Last two photos are his bed site.
