Answer
The destruction of its natural habitat by the human being did not leave him any opportunity to survive.
Explanation
The Eastern cougar was a member of a big cat family. It was believed to actually be a subspecies descending from the North American Cougar.This member of the big cat family, noticeable for its large size, long tail, and tan color was actually referred to by a number of different names The destruction of its natural habitat by the human being did not leave him any opportunity to survive. This is because the Eastern cougars used to primarily prey on white-tailed deer. By the late 1800’s, white-tailed deer were almost entirely eradicated and as a result, the cougars began to die out as they simply had no prey to feed upon. As well as this, not surprisingly, human interference played a big part in their extinction as human activities such as logging, mining, and basic human settlement and development began disturbing their natural habitats, meaning the big cats simply had nowhere to live.
