Cougars are big cats that stalk Yara's mountains and attack you on sight. They are worth hunting, because cougar meat trades for Durable Seals and cooks into stealth-boosting Ninja Nachos.
Cougars hunt alone and attack as soon as they see you. They stalk first, then pounce from a surprising distance, so a cougar you can see is usually already closing in.
Use a silenced weapon so you don't pull nearby soldiers into the fight. Aim for the head and keep moving sideways, since standing still makes the pounce land.
Cougar Meat is the reason to hunt them. Trade it for Durable Seals, or keep one for Ninja Nachos before a stealth-heavy mission.
Barracuda
Barracuda are fish you catch at fishing spots around Yara's coast, and their meat is useful for trading and cooking. A Barracuda brochure shows you where several of those spots are.
Black Hawk
The black hawk is a bird of prey you can hunt in Yara for its meat. It poses no danger to you, and the meat trades for Durable Plastic, which makes it worth a quick shot when you see one.
Bull Shark
Bull sharks are the dangerous sharks in Yara's waters, and you can also catch them at marked fishing spots. Their meat is good trade stock, but swimming near one is a bad idea.
Coyote
Coyotes are wild dogs that roam Yara's countryside, sometimes in packs, and can turn on you. They are minor threats, but a pack can catch you off guard while you are busy with soldiers.
