Are cougars prater or pray?

If your question was "Are cougars predator or prey?", then the answer is "predator". "Predator" is an animal that kills and eats other animals; "prey" is an animal which is often eaten. Many animals fall into both categories; mid-sized animals often eat smaller animals or insects, while larger animals eat the smaller animals. A large animal which is rarely eaten by others is sometimes called an "apex predator", because it's at the top of the food chain. Humans and bears, for example, are "apex predators".
