- When the resident male is killed by hunters, one of the young mountain lions gains control. We follow him as he defines his territory and hunts the deer herd, all while learning what it means to be an adult male. The Lions of the Americas go by many names, from mountain lions, cougars to pumas and panthers. These fearsome creatures are agile in nature but are mostly solitary animals. What threats do mountain lions face?

Anticosti island would be a paradise for cougars, lots of space few people, no wolves or bears and an overpopulation of whitetail deer. 🌲🦌🐆🌳
You sent me a Yukon mountain Lion..." I saw a vison of one by the dumpster tonight a Grey one"...lol
Be sure to check out another Wild Cat documentary here, this one is about the might Mountain Lynx! ua-cam.com/video/m57UmlDkmJc/v-deo.html
I love to watch animal documentaries and I also eager to join the team and to know struggling a single 50 minutes documentary is? Any one can help me?
I must say that this isn't hunting this is slaughtering. You have one animal being chase buy three other animals and then the two-legged animal with the gun kills and takes the trophy home. What if it was a female mountain lion hunting for her Cubs they just ended the life's of two babies and the Mother way to go Yo!.
Love this video amazing learning experience.,😆
such majestic creatures!
Despicable that people go out to shoot these beautiful animals!
I'm very glad my state, California, does not allow sport hunting for these animals.
people think thier great hunters with guns not the first nations tribes that preserved habitat and wildlife with handmade bows the greatest hu ters
You wouldn't have the same feeling of your little lap dog was taken out of your yard. They're hunted as a way to control and conserve the species.
@@ShonnMorrisCalifornia is stupid. They paid out of state hunters a quarter million dollars to take 20 lions out of a specific area in Southern CA. They reek havoc on the deer and elk herds that are struggling to regain populations. There's way more lions than the mess will let you know. I lived in CA for 35 years and hunted. I've seen so many of these animals. I love seeing them but I also understand the need to manage them. Even the wildlife biologists that work for and with the cdfw says they need to open up a management system. Instead of paying someone to come in and kill then they could be selling tags and putting money into the state and conservation efforts but the misinformation spread by groups like Peta has convinced the concrete dwellers that the lions are struggling when they're not.
@@maddawgnoll I normally don't respond to such hinhinged and incohgerent responses by I will for those reading and this will be my only response. natural predators keep a balance in their prey populations and have done so for millions of years. Humans have to be extremely arrogant to think the natural world requires us to play God over it LOL. Deer and Elk populations are hurting due to human activity. I just needed to set the record straight for those who may be reading. This will not turn into an online argument so this discussions ends here and I will not be responding to anything else you say.
Can we hunt... the hunters ? (O_O)
The footage of the cat supposedly running away from the hounds was a big tom. The cat they shot was not the same individual...creative editing...nice try. Humans have hunted with dogs for thousands of years. This is nothing new. Hunting lions with dogs is the only real effective means to harvest lions. These hunts are highly regulated to ensure populations remain healthy and sustainable. Recreational hunting generates revenue for the state/province that directly funds the continued conservation and management of that resource. Recreational/subsistence hunting (yes, people eat lion meat...it tastes like pork) imparts a transactional value to the resource which provides an incentive to always maintain healthy lion populations. Without some level of recreational/subsistence hunting, authorities just end up killing lions anyway due to human/livestock conflicts when the populations become too dense...and yes, they use dogs. The sad part is, they just leave the lion to rot, where a recreational/subsistance hunter is legally required to process the meat for consumption.
The editing doesn't show the miles these guys actually hiked up and down steep mountains in deep snow chasing a pack of dogs on a lion track...again creative editing to twist the narrative.
This comment should be pinned but that will never happen. All these anti hunting viewers need to be educated on why they are hinted and given the facts instead of the agenda.
@@maddawgnoll What agenda? Wanting lions to live because they have every right to like we do? They’re more beneficial to the ecosystem than we’ll ever be.
To hunt a kill a beautiful, majestic animal like a mountain is obscene. In this day and age there’s no need to hunt for substance. If someone feels a need to hunt for substance I think it’s not for substance, it’s purely for the pleasure of the hunt and killing an animal. I wouldn’t eat mountain lion I would much rather eat a good old fashioned beef steak.
@@EdwardBautista-p4p Better than the crap you buy at the store. More organic than the bullshit they claim is organic. That's good that you want to go to the store and buy meat and food where the farmers and ranchers decimate any unwanted critters. Not that that bothers me because we gotta do what we gotta do. I might try mountain lion if given the opportunity. They say it's very similar to pork. But I wouldn't hunt mountain lions for meat. I live with these animals and have had them get too close to me, my nephews and family. They are way more important than anyone's feelings about hunting. I won't hesitate to put one down, save a herd of elk, deer and peace of mind. I agree they are beautiful powerful creatures. Don't think that's gonna stop me from having to do what I feel is necessary. Not to mention that all these animals that people claim we're encroaching on need to be managed to prevent disease or starvation. It's life guy. Nothing will bring these dogs more joy than doing what they're bred to do. I like beef, but elk and deer venison are way better in my opinion. Bear meat is probably my favorite ever. Most hunters are selective in what they harvest. We don't just shoot anything. They are the largest pool of money that goes to conservation for these animals. The tax dollars from the licensing and tags pay for the public lands and wildlife reserves, refuge systems that so many of the anti hunting population use to hike, bike, or whatever else.
90% of the hunters that claim it's sustenance, or survival. They're wrong, because there are other options that are far less expensive unless you live in the sticks like I do. But I bet well over 70% will tell you it's for the comradery, memories, family and friends. It has nothing to do with squeezing the trigger, releasing an arrow, or killing. For most of us it isn't about shooting the animal but the spoils of success for the effort and time we put in. I personally don't enjoy shooting the animal at all, but everything else that goes with the hunt makes the shot exciting. I'm very happy to use that which God has provided, it's blasphemy not to
Why hunt such beautiful animals 😢
Why didn't the camera man tell them where the lion 🦁 is instead of telling the dog to find the lion ♌
Although I SMH at some of the statements made of opinion, the amazing animal and filming are amazing. Liked
Nice video
Lions are the only cat who lived in family, they can't call the Puma the Lion from America!
They have evidence of them living in family groups in the Andes. Up to 8 in a group.
Saying Cougars don't scavenge is a blatant lie!
There has been undeniable proof they do. Including scavenging on hikers that died on a trail
Why is there dead hikers on a trail?
What a joke this is … that hunting wow really challenging. You guys are so brave send your dogs out. They chased it up a tree and you shoot it out wow, what brave ‘men’ you are…. It be more challenging, taking out the garbage on a Tuesday night than what these bozos are doing.
😍😍😍😍😍
That’s not hunting
MULE DEER?....
Thought l was going to watch a documentary about the way mountain lions live.😢
Did not want to see the hunting of them so l did NOT watch this 😕
There is no reason to hunt mountain lions they are intrical to the ecosystem quite different from ferrell pigs which are an invasive species. The mountain lion is a beautiful animal there hunting is unnecessary and shamefull.
There is a reason why. They aren't doing it just to do it. Research it.
@@Angelo-ve5sd There is no reason to hunt them. They’re more beneficial to the ecosystem than we’ll ever be. They mostly kill sick and weak deer, anyway. As for other prey, of course they’re going to hunt them. They’re predators after all.
