Did you know that Mountain Lions are the largest species of cats that can purr? Their purrs are similar to house cats except much louder and deeper.
They can't roar like lions or tigers because they have a rigid hyoid bone, which allows for continuous purring on the exhale, but prevents the deep roar of roaring cats.
