"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. The story not only reveals the harrowing yet funny efforts of the cowboys but also ultimately showcases the unpredictability of both wild creatures and human situations, culminating in a lighthearted conclusion that leaves the fate of Oscar and the cowboys’ antics open to interpretation.
