The foundation of this sculpture is made of stone, about 4 feet high and 5 feet wide. On top of the stone is a branch and the cougar is sitting on his backside higher up on the branch, but the front legs are lower and extended. He is looking up, on alert. This is one of many sculptures placed along the east side of the Arkansas River, on the Tulsa River Trail.
