In the old sense of the word, Cougars were cars often found up on a mechanic's rack in need of a valve job. Now it's the other way around where Cougars [read: older women] like Darryl Hanah and Chelsea Zinn, once they get under a young man's hood, have been known to check for compression, oil leaks and generally putter for hours at a time. In the old sense of the word, if a cougar were found in the bedroom it would be shot because it was, well, a cougar. Now if you find one under the sheets, you thank your lucky stars.
