Raw cougar. Seems a Washington deer hunter dined on feline sashimi platter last fall and came down with a case of trichinosis. The story in the Seattle P-I doesn't go into much detail about whether feast was an al fresco bid to ward off starvation, an drunken hunting lodge dare, or a holiday buffet. It would appear that the hunter acted alone.
So cook your cougar, y'all (try the green chili).
