Don't know if it was a he or she, but it was quite large for a puma, and I guessed it weighed in the 400lb range.

Heaviest cougars I've seen on record have been just over 200 lbs. I doubt the cat you saw was anywhere near 400 lbs. People tend to overestimate the weight of cougars and bears.

"I've seen on record have been just over 200 lbs."

You could be right on that. I've seen several in zoos, though, and this was Puma, and larger than any I've seen in captivity by a half. I weighed in at 180 in those days and that cat outweighed me for sure.
