How many pounds of meat does a cougar eat per day

A large male cougar living in the Cascade Mountains kills a deer or elk every 9 to 12 days, eating up to 20 pounds at a time and burying the rest for later.Except for females with young, cougars are lone hunters that wander between places frequented by their prey, covering as much as 15 miles in a single night.Cougars rely on short bursts of speed to ambush their prey. A cougar may stalk an animal for an hour or more 

hope this helps in any way ! :)
