Cougar mother

The Cougar mother is the deceased mother of the 4 Cougar cubs that Benji found. She is a minor but pivotal character in the 1987 Disney film Benji the Hunted.
She was portrayed by Malina.
== Role ==
She appears in one scene where she is killed by the Hunter. Benji tries to comfort the dying animal, but is chased away by the Hunter, who then retrieves the dead cat and marches off with her draped over his shoulders. Benji subsequently encounters four orphaned cougar cubs, belonging to the killed cougar, and he attempts to shield them from predation. He finds another mother cougar and spends most of the movie trying to introduce the orphans to the mother so she will adopt them.
==Trivia==
*Although Joe Camp claims that the cougar mother was played by Molina, IMDb says that one of the cubs was played by Malina.
*Despite her small role, she's still a pivotal character, as her death was the reason Benji had to adopt the cubs.
