Press Releases: Follow official foundation announcements on eastern cougar conservation, including rewilding education, habitat connectivity work, research priorities, and organizational milestones that affect field planning. Media Mentions: Track outside coverage of cougar recovery, large carnivore coexistence, and expert commentary, with attention to the difference between verified conservation work and unconfirmed sighting claims.
Foundation news should help readers separate movement from noise. A camera check, a policy meeting, a media interview, and a volunteer training day do not all carry the same scientific weight, but each can show how eastern cougar conservation is being discussed, tested, and explained on the ground.
We keep the focus on public-facing conservation work: habitat protection, ecological restoration, coexistence, and the people doing the slow work between field notes and public understanding. The modern baseline is stark: the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service removed the eastern puma from the federal endangered species list in 2018 after concluding the subspecies was extinct.
