He's probably more intelligent than a lot of the other "animals."Aw man, he didn't mark his territory like all the other animals.
If he moved, what would watch on here? More videos of chickens or rats going into a trap?
Speaking of wild life, a few hours after seeing the mountain lion, an opossum was seen carrying 6 or 7 smaller babies on her back just below our deck in the back of the house. I wonder how she got them all to climb on her back for the ride?
Me? Scared of a possum? Heck no! We feed Old Walter every night...P.S. - Is it the mountain lion or the 'possum that's got you worried?
When I think about all of the mountain lion attacks I've heard about, most often if the person had a gun they missed their target and the shot didn't deter the lion. It isn't easy to properly aim and fire a gun when a lion is charging you or is about to take a bite. Hiking poles, walking sticks, and knives may be more useful though would involve a pretty intimate encounter. Don't get me wrong, I'd want a gun too. I know of one attack where the victim used their rifle to hit the lion as it killed their dog after they missed their shot. If you see a mountain lion before it's charging for your jugular, make noise and make yourself look as big as possible. They also apparently really dislike the human voice. You're most likely to be attacked if your moving fast (running, biking, on an atv). Small children and pets are also obviously tasty morsels to a lion.
