As a species, Puma Concolar is not an endangered species. Occurring over North, Central, and South America in a number of nondescript races, and known variously as puma, mountain lion, cougar and panther, this animal is still fairly common, and is listed as "Least Concern" by the IUCN. The Florida race known as the Florida panther is endangered however, but many steps taken by officials now have this race on the rebound, with around 100 animals now from a low of 25.
Humans are the main reason that puma is endangered species. As a species, the puma is not an endangered species. Only the Florida race is endangered.

The Florida panther, a race endemic to Florida is endangered however, but the species as a whole is not.

Endangered Species
A critically endangered species is a species that is in immediate risk of extinction. Currently there are 1821 plants and 2129 animals in this endangered category. The list of wildlife that is critically endangered is so extensive that it would take hours to list every species. The IUCN website lists all endangered species and is a great tool for understanding the threat of extinction and the impact it will have on our world.
The cougar, puma, or mountain lion is not an endangered species. However, the subspecies "Florida panther" is endangered.
It is more than endangered, it is critically endangered.
