Pumas (Puma concolor) as Ecological Brokers

Originally from Syracuse, New York, Laura LaBarge is currently working as a postdoc with the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Konstanz, Germany. She did her PhD with SUNY-UB on the spatial and physiological consequences of predation risk for wild samango monkeys and worked for several years in the Soutpansberg mountains of Limpopo, South Africa.
