"Cougars prowl in Ontario"

This story on the Star‘s site probably got more page views last night when the headline was “Cougars prowl in Ontario.” That was before some Torstar spoilsport changed it to “big cats.” Oh, Star, why fight sophomoric humour with dour precision? And by the way, is covering animal stories the big thing this week?
