Default RE: Snuck up behind a Cougar!

Don't get me wrong, I know a big cat could definately put the hurt on anyone. Just most of the attacks you hear about are on women or children. Us big burley men usually don't have to worry about it as much. I guess I'm just picking your brains a little about what you do to deal with the fear of being attacked, even if they aren't going to try to eat you later. When they attack deer and elk they generally go for the throat like a lion and suffocate their prey. I figure if he's chomping on me like that I got at least a couple minutes with at least one arm to either beat on him real good or get my knife out.

Hopefully that will never happen but who knows?
