When Animals Strike - Puma Slays Hiker

[Sulik213]

fight back with everything you got... what my tiny fist wont do any damage to a cougar or puma!!

[RProductionsRoblox]

Oh yeah of course let's fight off a mountain lion

[MyBUB101]

When did this happen

[Dima5663]

@sangreviento69 wow you're retarded ..

[buzzinnPAL]

I always wanted to visit America, but on second thought, i think i'll stay here, the scariest wild animals we have are pigeons.

[SweetestGirlxXx]

@buzzinnPAL lol moveover im coming to ur place :P

[account716]

hit it in its nose or jabe that mother fuckers eyes. then they will get off of you..

[commonman80]

I Lived in California then. What the Video Doesn't tell you is, They found the body of the man about 11:00 am. However, the only way to locate the Puma, was to camouflage themselves far enough from the body so as not to leave a sent, and wait until the Puma came back and started feeding on the body later that night. Then the sheriffs shot and killed it. However, all you Nature lovers can rest assure that "Nature is our Friend", when you have to live with seeing a human being eaten by an animal..

[dracomancer01]

cant really blame the cats..in oc we have pretty much wiped out all large prey animals due to habitate encroachment...they are just hunting what they can to survive

[tosgem]

no way would it kill me if i was on my bmx. i'd kik its ass back to asia where it come from. im 15 years old.

[12bmxrider]

dude i could swear this happend in san juan capistrano orange county california in san juan trail cause ive been down that hill bmxing and ive only seen rattlesnakes but since im going fast i just bunny hop over those bitches but damm im sorry 4 that guy hope u rest in peace

[ELSOL102]

@12bmxrider I wouldnt' go down that trail. When running or biking their instinct is to chase anything that runs.

[FrostyPuma]

:'(

[manos3790]

this why you shouldn't bite your nails, you're then on a more even keel to fight back. Also cut back on sugar so you have strong teeth, only then can you defeat this wild, aggresive and ultimately far more agile predator by the way lol

[enchilada01]

if you see a cougar, chances are it already let you go. If you have seen it it means it most likely has lost its element of surprise and will not get close to you. If its going to make a meal out of you chances are you will never see it coming and wil have your neck snapped before you know what hit you

[lonedoghowling]

Curious why a cougar with food already available would go after more of the same kind of food. any # of stupid jokes available, but why bother killing twice?

[DonChilenito]

man make us big? even bears sometimes doesnt even scare goucars away by standing 12 feet tall.. how that hell are we going to scare it of XD:P

[equarg]

Yes fight back is good...but one lady did the opposite, and lived. She was jumped on from behind and her bed roll covered her neck, saving her from getting bitten. As the cougar wrestled with the bed roll she wiggled out of her shoulder straps, and turned around on her back and FACED the cougar talking softly. She did not act like pray, nor like an aggressive enemy. So the cougar just sat and watched until some other hikers scared it off. Not even hurt. Smart lady.

[cryptidlover101]

When because it was hungry and the hunters could have been lower it's food source

[A4moondoggy]

air horn, pepper spray, gun

[NordicHealer]

Could someone please tell me WHERE this attack occured. With all these comments not one mention is made of the State or local vicinity!

[slim77k]

they say act dead if a bear attacks u..........id fuckin rip its eyes out....given the oportunity

[matthewc4e]

@slim77k, ACT DEAD???? u r dead after a bear attack!! the only acting that u'll do is acting as a meal! 'and the oscar goes to......so and so for his role as a.......hamburger'!

[equarg]

@matthewc4e

Yep..only act dead for a bear...not a cougar....one of their favorite things to eat off their prey is the facial skin...once the prey is dead (apparently only half the face for some odd reason) Its a common image/ description on people and animals that are killed by cougars...so FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT a cougar, play dead 90% of the time with a bear.

[042576705]

better Carie gun with u, and always look out for dangers animal s

than u know what to do.

[matthewc4e]

r u kidding me? look big and bad? the only thing a mountain lion would see,would be my dust! i'd be running like hell with my pants full of shit!

[Naganochilango]

@matthewc4e jaja ur comment was one of the best ever man 4 real. i'm laughin as a motherr fucker jaja

[equarg]

@matthewc4e

STUPID PLAN! In nature if you run, you get your butt bitten...literally. Running = weakness= your dinner.

Stand your ground. Or movie away slowly......Use your brains...they are the best weapon the creature gave you. (even Greek legend acknowledges this gift)

[matthewc4e]

@equarg , that's exactly what i'll do. USE MY BRAINS. i'm gonna run so fast , my heels would be touching the back of my head! yep, i'm gonna use my brains alright. not gonna let some mountain lion have himself a meal out of them. i know greek legend says to stand your ground, but in these types of situations, i tend to get a little deaf! now maybe if i had an ak47 with me, it'll be the fucking lion that would be running. i'd stand my ground then, and only then.

[equarg]

@matthewc4e

okey doke.....you get kinda deaf...you kinda gonna get eaten. Don't say I did not warn you.

One lady survived when a lion jumped on her backpack while she was hiking (bed roll covered back of head and neck so it saved her). While she was pinned on the ground she did not scream..but turned around faced the cougar, and genitally started to talk to it. The cougar confused because she did not act like prey...or like an enemy just sat on top of her and watched until spooked off.

[matthewc4e]

@equarg , talking about being deaf, could u imagine what the turnout would be if the lady u r talking about had started talking to a deaf cougar? she'd be history now and the cougar would've got fatter and he would have got himself a cozy sleeping bag too! nah, i think i'll just run like hell. but u can sit around and have a chat with a cougar if u like. maybe have a cup of coffee together too.

[equarg]

@matthewc4e

LOLOF. Predators have four basic modes in terms of reactions to another "animal" it encounters in the woods.

Food,Prey, Enemy, and Friend.

Most of the time you are supposed to act like an aggressive enemy and YELL at it to drive it away. Don't let it confuse you with prey (running and squealing). But this lady took a smart gamble and acted like a (?) friend ? and baffled the cougar enough till help came. Some of that was luck, the other pure smarts. Something you lack in the woods

[matthewc4e]

@equarg , what a world we live in. u go out to the city, there's the possibility of u getting robbed, stabbed, shot or even run over by a truck or whatever. u go out into the woods, there's the possibility of u being attacked by a cougar, eaten by a bear or trampled on by an elephant! i'm gonna my self a suit of armour, steel plated and with spikes and blades sticking out all over. this way i won't need to run (i won't be able too anyway) and i'll be safe from any attack.

[zabouza4]

man i would of head lock it and chok it to death!!!!!!!!!!

[matthewc4e]

@zabouza4, lol! wtf do you think the lions gonna do? wrestle with u and the winner gets it all? man, it'll tear out your throat before u even know whats happened! run pal, run. and i mean RUN!!!

[BruceH59]

Of course they forgot to mention the attacks skyrocket after wimpy people ban hound hunting. Mt Lion have no fear of humans now days thanks to wimpy bunny huggers. End results humans attacks and death.

[notmylover12]

is it me or did that cyotes chest get big at 1:40-1:42

[seapeddler]

What hikers/bikers need is an air bag that inflates around the body in the event of an attack.

The sudden inflation would knock the cougar/puma/wildcat off instantly.

It could also release a foul odor like bear spray.

Shooting is the lazy mans' way out.

What kind of country doesn't allow big cats to roam freely?

Where is the freedom we hear so much about?

[Ladycrazey]

its mostly our fault why they attack, wether you belive it or not. This is because we are taking our the mountain lion's habitat and obviously they see us as prey.

[fergimonkey]

@Ladycrazey REALLY??? :O

[SilverGunZoO]

I thought I should bend my neck and let him bite it xD

[Ectos0111]

theyre telling you to take on a mountain lion?

[bstensland]

a man-eating puma...hmmm, I can't think of better meat than long pork.

[freddy7706]

People want to find some comfortable places to enjoy their vocation, but please do some information research first. There is a " mountain lion" area, we are only share the nature with other animals, not just for human being....

[townes12345]

you basturds dont shooot it it dosnt know its not ment to you fucks..

[133ilovebreyers]

@townes12345 i agree. humans are killign of all of its prey and it has nothign left to eat. we deserve it

[poalad1]

I was told that you need to get a hold of the animal eyes, and stick your thumbs into their eyes really hard. with this they would let you alone, this works with almost all kinds of animals.

[sverigeforfan]

HOly shit fucking owned!

[shellshockmgs3]

Hey berto they did a when animals strike show on bees. it was quite informative. go check it out.

[goofypothead]

cool

[berto01]

I love these shows that instill fear by folklore and false legend. Yes there have been a few cougar attacks. But do you know that there are dozens of bee deaths every year in the US. In fact here in Oregon where no one has ever been attacked by a cougar there has been dozens of deer attacks over the years. But if a cougar is spotted they close schools and parks!! When in fact they should be closing schools when a bee is spotted since they actually have killed children.

[STRIKER520]

You are wrong about that they had one on may 31,2008 in Medford, Oregon,one in Cove Oregon just last year but was stopped by the dogs they had with them. You could say there are very few and that there has never been a death because of them but they do attack even in Oregon.

[berto01]

HHMM If my dog saw a cougar he would give chase and the cougar would more than likely turn on him since he is a whimpy dog. Then I could say that my dog stopped a cougar from attacking me. With all due respect I personally do not believe the my dog saved me from a cougar stories. Neither does the ODFW since they have no record of it.

[pljloves]

I live in california i go hunting alot and i don't any mountain lions and i don't attend too anyways hahaha

[AmetdeathA]

i live in california and even though it is illegal to carry a firearm in parks, i take mine. you have to be pretty stupid to leave your life up to the chance that a predator just wont see you. everyone should be armed and then animals would see their true place on earth. running AWAY from humans, not towards them. word needs to get out amongst predators that we will fuck them up if they try to eat us. then unarmed hikers wouldnt have anything to worry about. but they should take a gun anyway

[boxingboycow]

LOL see you dumbass californians need to start HUNTING lions again so that they have a controlled population and are not so over populated that humans become prey anyway.....dumbass liberal bastards

O and what does it take to become a native..how many generations for you morons does it take???? My family has been on american soil since 1698...How am I not native? Just because my skin is not brown and my heritage did not involve scalping?

[snapper842002]

"native american" refers to the race / genetic group. so your family is not native american even if they lived here longer than the native americans themselves.

[Darklarik]

Wow! @boxingboycow a legit stupid redneck! HAHA, typical fucking moron who dosent know shit about nature and justifes himself like an american patriot making reference to slavery and native american. Priceless five star coment, and a true fucking dumbass.

[boxingboycow]

LOL so tell me you libfucktard, how would you know more about nature then I? Seeing as I live in nature everyday, I hunt, I fish, I grow my own veggies. tell me faggot? As for me being a dumbass LOL your is coming, you see you fucks voting for that fuck obama have created a time when America will go into civil war and trust me yours is coming!

[Darklarik]

Unbelievable, @Boxingboycow you even think Obama is a dumbass. Tell you what, i have to simply congratulate you for achieving 4th place in biggest idiots ive ever seen on youtube. you must be very proud of yourself. Oh and one more thing... Civil war?! XD ahhaahaha! go make out with your cousin or somethin pal, and seriously get a decent education for the new world.

[korbindemientieff]

@Darklarik dude obama is the biggest fuck up ever dude and boxingboycow is just as dumb cause ur not fuckin native american im native american ur not and as far as scalping everyones past relatives did something grusome to there enemys and if u have a prob with that and u want to be native go back to europe u can be a native all you want there dumbass and yeah obama is a joke if he was a good prez he would make money backed up by gold again paper money what a joke!!

[Darklarik]

@korbindemientieff wait, are you attacking me about the skalping? in any case im on your side dude! even if we share different opinions on Obama. so chill.

[Sourse9]

just one time my dad and I went out hiking on logging road (because there was NO motor car access), and we ended up face to face with a mountain lion. After that my dad swore that no matter where we go hiking, that he'll make sure that we have some type of protection.

[cubanrefuge7900]

i can kik a pumas ass :P lol

[mikesegaline]

Id like to see that lol

[ummhmmlies]

Man, dont humans just suck at fighting with nothing but there bodyparts? not fair  :( lol

[codzilla12]

I like how they used an M16 to kill a cougar.

[Hacker340]

nah, M16 is old, M4 with a red dot sight and a grenade launcher. XD

[tDarKnight]

I prefer the british SA80/LA85

[Hacker340]

not bad, but kinda heavy

[LadyArwenFC]

oh man never want that to happen to me i want to go through such stuff but getting attacked no way

[LoLGigglEsomg]

dude..this shit is something else!!!!!!!!!! x(

i would scream my head off and play dead until it kills me

[Baikou]

Perfect reason to take my dagger AND sword with me if I ever went mountain hiking.

[sciencealwayswins]

Who the hell has a dagger and a sword lying around?

[Baikou]

I'm not saying just anybody does, but it would be a good idea to take some kind of weapon with you. I don't have a gun, but I do have 4 swords, 2 daggers, and a spear.

[sciencealwayswins]

True about the weapon, although the sword or spear might be overkill. ;)

[cubanrefuge7900]

um... i think its easier to get a gun than a frikin spear :P

[Baikou]

Um...I think that depends on if you actually own a gun or not. I do not own a gun, but I do own a spear, therefore, it is MUCH easier for me to grab a spear. It's pretty tough to bring something with you that you don't own compared to what you already do own.

[tDarKnight]

What the hell are you doing walking around the woods with a fricken spear?

That's...that's a little...you know...weird.

[Baikou]

I never said I was actually doing that. And walking around in the middle of the public with a spear is weird. Walking around in an area where you know you life is in harms way of wild animals attacking you with a spear is called survival. Besides, who cares about how they look when their life is being threatened by a wild animal? Now THAT is definitely weird.

[beast35214]

this is why you should carry a gun or hunting knife while hiking or mountain biking

[reply209]

WOW that could be anyone I'm going to be more careful about my surroundings because I live in the mountains WOW

[LionKingGirl13]

okay one more time that cat did not have to die am part native american i dount like seing that couger dead on the ground.

[xXTigerxGirlXx]

same here... =(

[DrKorn5]

oh im native american too...i was born here making me a native. Perhaps you should be eaten by a puma. btw im part "north american indian" too.

[ScouserLegend]

being born in a country doesn't make you a native...your ancestors are probably immigrants if your not indian

[DrKorn5]

Is that so? I think you will find that Merriam-Webster would disagree with you.

Native: 2 : belonging to a particular place by birth.

Everyone who is in the Americas is an immigrant of some sort seeing that Homo Sapiens Sapiens did not evolve here. Using Natrive American is such a silly PC term. Why don't I call myself a franco,celtic, anglo, germanic, slavic-american?

[ScouserLegend]

I'm English and I know England isn't English native land as we (anglo saxon) originated in Northern Germany. I don't know what your background is but I'm sure if you want to yourself a native to America then you can, the only people who would disagree with you are the real natives to the land

[DrKorn5]

How are they the "real" natives? They walked here my ancestors sailed there are no "REAL" natives of this part of the world and anyways being a good part Quebecquois I have some mickmac blood. Ah yes the English...wonderful people. Actually its the Normans that are the real assholes. Yeah the real Britons are celts or at least the first ones. And just for the sake of being rude Fuck England if there was a land bridge between England and Ireland we would be speaking Gaelic now.

[D0g63rt]

@ScouserLegend

Indians are from India.

[mit871chell]

@ScouserLegend Everyone is a native of Africa.

[ScouserLegend]

@mit871chell you wish mate one day they tell us our ancestors are white then they change it to black next it'll be Asian i don't care though cos my recent ancestry's white and my descendants will be white so go fuck yourself

[Bravehart10000]

@ScouserLegend But even Native aren't native to this land. We came over from Asia and Africa, years ago.

[ScouserLegend]

@Bravehart10000 how do you know that? carbon datings a load of shit it's been proven wrong multiple times

[Bravehart10000]

@ScouserLegend Show me your sources. My sources include that it is widely used for dating artifacts currently in the archeology field. Also, the human race originated in Africa, as shown by our ape-like ancestors like Lucy. We evolved and spread out, moving to other locations.

[ScouserLegend]

@Bravehart10000 sources don't mean shit when you'll be burning in hell my little atheist friend

[Bravehart10000]

@ScouserLegend Thing is, I am not atheist. I believe God started life and has ultimate power, but chooses to not interfere too much. He does help those who pray to him, but will not do anything that can sway favor drastically towards one who does not need it.

[sangreviento69]

@ScouserLegend

and Indians are immigrants from Asia. go figure

[disturbed10kfists]

@ScouserLegend native americans are even from another country they came from russia i believe but that was very long ago....so nobody rightly is native to america :D

[greyghost84]

Stupid you!

[Unsibra]

grey i agree...pop aint got it all

[sisterofthenave90]

Most cats try to use the elemenet of surprise when hunting and almost all of the attacks on humans have began with this crucial detail. In India farmers that work in the field wear masks on the back of their heads because it confuses the tigers that may try to sneak up on them.

The thing about all cat predators(especially mountain lions) if you do have to fight go for the eyes, nose, and ears. Cats tend to be solitary hunters and cannot and will not afford being injured and unable to hunt.

[shckar]

hell yeah

[djobeat]

"fight back with everything you got" lol nice advice.

[wolfluvr4]

i know right if that doesnt work then fight back u might as well be dead know or play dead

[Curtis50earle]

fuck that shit i'd fight em off with a gun and a sword and maybe like a grenade or some shit.

[shckar]

for cats its true because its not like bears that leaves you if you lay dow ...cats go for the neck for kill

[stratman123]

"Fight back with everything you got."

I would have never thought of that! I always thought it was best to try to suffocate it by sticking your neck in its mouth!

Besides, if you fight back with EVERYTHING you got, you won't have any energy left if BIGFOOT jumps out of the bushes!

[imcdowel]

hahahaha rofl!

[stratman123]

Or...

You can lie perfectly still so it will think that you are dead...

Until you are.

[blahblahgdp]

@stratman123 LOL YOUR FUNNY

[benkenser]

@stratman123

"Fight back with everything you got" was a good idea. I'd always thought I suppose to fight with about 50% of what I got.

Now, I think I can survive a mountain lion attack. Heading to the mountain next week with full confidence

[anon12377]

@stratman123 Well, there are a lot of people that might try to play dead or just scream and hope it gets scared away. A lot of people really have no survival instinct anymore because we've been dumbed down by the luxuries of modern society.

[stratman123]

@anon12377 If a puma pounced on you-I don't think there is a single person that would "play dead" at that point. SCREAM??? You bet!

[pegasusmum]

In case you haven't noticed, you put a quick toy in front of a cat..it jumps and attacks..this one was a hungry kitty..ouch.

[SaMOOOrai]

aww puma's are A holes

[oakclifflatina]

men thats so scarey

[therealchachalita]

omg
