We've all had those times when we needed to step away from the family drama.

And, as we learn today on Of Cedar And Salmon, that experience isn't unique only to us humans.

When Cougar seeks out a life of quiet and peace, he happens upon a new discovery - man's "yellow flower", fire!

The yellow fire brings warmth and comfort to his new peaceful home, but it also draws the attention of Cougar's little cousin, Bobcat.

Moved by the desperate need of his extended family, the two agree to a mutual living arrangement.

However, it is not long until their family bonds are again tested. And when Bobcat fails to keep their fire burning, he must restore what he has lost.

"Cougar and Bobcat" reminds us of the delicate balance of family dynamics, and the need for our own inner peace.

All reflected in the markings of these secretive animals.
