QuoteThe cougar lives in all forest types, lowland and mountainous deserts and in open areas with little vegetation up to an elevation of 5,800 m (19,000 ft). Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar#Distribution_and_habitat
QuoteIn modern times, the wolf occurs mostly in wilderness and remote areas. The wolf can be found between sea level and 3,000 m (9,800 ft). Wolves live in forests, inland wetlands, shrublands, grasslands (including Arctic tundra), pastures, deserts, and rocky peaks on mountains.[1] Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf#Distribution_and_habitat
So it makes sense for the mountain lion and wolves (and I guess by association dire wolves) to be in the forest, desert and snow biome
And yes, most of the real animals in the game do live in Arizona where the game is set, so no major issues there. Though they've taken some liberties with the bears
