"When Oscar Went Wild" by W. C. Tuttle is a humorous short story written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows two cowboys, Ren Merton and Sig Watson, who find themselves unexpectedly involved in a series of events surrounding a tame cougar named Oscar that escapes during a film shoot. The story captures their comedic attempts to capture Oscar while navigating the chaos that ensues. The plot unfolds when Ren and Sig stumble upon a woman tied to a tree, who turns out to be part of a film crew looking for Oscar. After a series of humorous interactions and misadventures, they attempt to catch the elusive cougar, leading to a comical blend of chaos and camaraderie as they deal with both the wild animal and the quirky characters involved in the film project.
