Known for its formidable size and strength, the grizzly played a crucial role in the ecosystems of California. In contrast, the mountain lion, or cougar, continues to roam the mountain ranges of California. These agile predators are crucial for controlling deer populations and thus help maintain the balance of the ecosystem. Through their symbolic representation in art, these creatures continue to inspire awe and respect for the natural world.
