This statement is inaccurate. While dogs usually *are* used in cougar
hunting, it isn't impossible without them. Some states have a fairly
high percentage of cougar taken without dogs. 
Nor do all cougar biologists use dogs. Kenny Logan and Linda Sweanor,
in their decade-long White Sands study in New Mexico, used no dogs yet
captured dozens of cougars. In their hot and arid environment, they
felt using dogs was too much of a risk to the cougars *and* the hounds.
