Historically found in the Appalachians, its population dwindled due to habitat destruction, hunting, and human expansion. While there are occasional unconfirmed sightings, no verified breeding populations remain. In contrast, other species like the red fox and white-tailed deer are not endangered in the region. Conservation efforts focus on preserving wildlife habitats and preventing further loss of biodiversity.","mcq_options":[{"right":"yes","answer":"Eastern cougar"},{"right":"no","answer":"Gray wolf"},{"right":"no","answer":"Red fox"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1734,"title":"Appalachian Mountains of the United States of America","slug":"appalachian-mountains"},{"id":1851,"title":"Major Mountain Ranges in the United States","slug":"major-mountain-ranges-in-the-united-states"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/12597","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12597"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=12597"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=12597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
