The cougar (Puma concolor), also commonly known as the mountain lion, puma, or catamount, is a large felid of the subfamily Felinae native to the Americas. Its range, from the Canadian Yukon to the southern Andes of South America, is the greatest of any large wild terrestrial mammal in the Western Hemisphere. An adaptable, generalist species, the cougar is found in most American habitat types. It is the second heaviest cat in the New World, after the jaguar. Secretive and largely solitary by nature, the cougar is properly considered both nocturnal and crepuscular, although sightings during daylight hours do occur. The cougar is more closely related to smaller felines, including the domestic cat (subfamily Felinae), than to any subspecies of lion (subfamily Pantherinae), of which only the jaguar is native to the Western Hemisphere.

An older woman who has nothing going on with her life. In her 40's and up, she's bored to death with her day job, has NO children, or a husband, or a career. Just an old maid who has to get some carnal satisfaction from a young guy. Extremely desperate. And when she uses up the poor fellow of every drop of abuse, she's on to the next one. These type of individuals are sad as hell.
Jody: (thinking out loud) oh god, I hate my job and I don't have a boyfriend to hang with to give me company. I am so horny. I KNOW, I'll go to that hot nightclub & pick up some idiot young guy. (checking herself out in the mirror) I'm still hot, still got a look of 22 years old, but I gotta tuck in this belly. Or maybe I can go post an ad on Craigslist & find some little boys to fuck me. YEAH that's better than the clubs. I think I will do that. These 20something girls got nothing on me. The cougar trend is IN.

Normally a cougar would be considered an older women preying on young men, but for a very immature man a cougar is just a young girl who has gotten too old (usually an age of 14-18)

An updated term for the old card game "Old Maid", in order to make it more appealing.
Wouldn't you rather play a game of Cougar, than a game of Old Maid?

"Hey, Tommy! Want to play some Cougar?"
"Sure! Let me get my cards! You're totally going to get stuck with the old biznatch this time!"

A sexual predator, typically one with pedophiliac tendencies. Gender is no discrimination with a "cougar," as they will take either. A cougar is usually emo and full of hate for the world.
Oh man, did you hear about that cougar who raped that 14 year old girl last week? I hope he goes to jail! He is like 25 and still lives with his parents!
