That makes sense, i know anyone who built a house right before covid probably doubled their property value. Well maybe not that much but increased it to say the least with the ridiculous increase In orice of materials.

Right on. Still 140 is pretty impressive though. I wouldnt wanna mess with a coyote nor bobcat and they are much smaller. Obv that guy wasnt lookin to pick a fight but still super impressive he survived. Thats insane they got one on record 275, geeze wonder if it was super long or super fat or both.
I figure you would like that one. She was a small one but a mother too. The first one down the road was one of hers. I bet she didn't go 90 lbs. Females to be around 140 and the males up to 220. I had a 220 lb St. Bernard. Great dog, but when he played he did whatever he wanted with me lol and I could bench and press much more than my weight at the time. A quick 220 mountain lion would be a tough out. I'ld rather fight a wolf lol

Everything you need to know about the chip shortage that's plaguing automakers
Why is there a semiconductor chip shortage? How long will the chip shortage last? How does the chip shortage impact cars? Here's what to know.

With those claws and teeth, it wouldn't be a fight at all. You'd be dead before you had a chance to sneeze. 😆
She would've attacked immediately if she felt he was too close and a threat to her kittens. But in this situation her intention never was to attack, it was just to get him as far away from the kittens as possible. Once he was halfway up the trail had he stopped she would've stopped too, more than likely, and just stood her ground continuing to growl and bluff charge until he left. That wasn't an aggressive, stalking approach, it was a get away from my kids or I will be forced to F you up approach.
Sounds like I would be really intimidating to her. Can't blame her at all.
On a serious note, I wonder if a large male made lots of noise and got big with arms in the air, if that would really scare off something like that. Good news for me, any time I go to a park like that around here, I am carrying
That's tomorrow you ignorant cracker!
Over 200 is rare.
Adult males average approximately 140 pounds but in rare cases may weigh 180 pounds and measure 7-8 feet long from nose to tip of tail. Adult males stand about 30 inches tall at the shoulder. Adult female cougars rarely exceed 110 pounds.
I think the type of human it would take to kill an adult wolf or mountain lion would be would that is trained in fighting to the death. One that realizes losing a hand while the wolf bites it during your choke hold or eye gouging is the cost of staying alive.

I think a lot of people would be surprised how much damage they can do in a life vs death situation.
This. I think anybody moderately athletic could stand a chance. Also, wild animals aren’t keen on getting injured, they’re opportunists. Getting a sprained ankle = death, for a predator. So if you get a couple good blows in, they might peace out.
Now, if we’re talking about a highly motivated full-grown cougar, and one of you has to die, I’m putting money on the killing machine with knives built into its paws, but I could see humans winning a few in a 7 game series.
I'm pretty sure if I nailed a cougar in the head with a big rock, that would be game over. Even a stick that doesn't break. That makes your odds a lot higher. That said, if you get a hold of it, you can probably just choke it to death. That cougar won't know what the hell is going on, he's never had anything strangle him before lol
I still take me. It changes nothing! I just might get cut up a little more.
Its gonna freak out and claw the shit out of you unless it wasnunconscious from the rock or u were choking from the rear.
anything is gonna freak out if it cant breathe, regardless if theyd experienced before or not. The ML isnt gonna be like i cant breathe and have never had this happen i dont know what to do so i guess ill jist chill and wait it out. No its going to freak out.
Ill jist put it like this, im never gonna brag about being tough or strong or some great fighter bc im not, but we had an old barn cat get run over and it broke its back but didnt kill it and it was flopping around, it was pitiful so i decided id put it out of its misery and figure id just choke it out like you said, well i pinned its head down and tried to strangle it, and after about 30-60 secs of it clawing the shit out of my hands, i went and got a gun. Now i know i could have completed the task if neccessary but it wasnt pleasant, and that was a cat.
There is no running off in a cage match, fight to the death.
Let’s start here. A dog who hasn’t been trained and is mean. A pit bull. You honestly think it would take me more than 30 seconds to subdue and take that thing out?
You weren’t fighting for your life. You were trying to be calm by ending something else’s. Very different scenarios
Absolutely i was just illustrating that animals arent gonna throw in the towel just bc you start to choke them jist bc theyve never been strangled before, they are gonna freak the eff out. Animals have a Survival mode just like humans, they just stay in it a helluva lot more.
But yea i mean ur def right i could have prob just ripped the cats head smooth off ringing its neck like a duck if i wasnt trying to be somewhat humane.
