    In this compilation video, we go over multiple clips that range from mountain lion attacks, cougar encounters and even puma spottings. What makes these ''caught on camera'' moments so scary is the fact that they were filmed in remote areas like a forest, the arizona or california desert or even national parks.
    We even feature a moment where a man comes face to face with a cougar stalking him. He was stalked by a cougar. Other clips feature police vs cougar moments and some feature clips where turkey hunting adventures go wrong for two young hunters. These wild cats can be very scary. You could almost call this a ''mountain lion vs dog'' moment. Some of these creepy videos even feature moments where people were chased down by these animals, which are known to attack or stalk people who are out camping, hunting or mountain biking in the wild.
    These mountain lion vs man moments are sure to give you the chills and the fact that some people were lucky enough to capture these near death experiences on gopros ou on tape makes it even crazier. Some of these have even gone wrong, but some of the hikers were lucky enough to be carrying bear spray and to have their dogs with them.

    The fist guy made one massive mistake- He turned and ran. Running activates a predator instinct, and turning your back exposes you to an easy attack. That man is lucky to still be alive

      Yeah you NEVER run from a predator especially a mountain lion that has you on speed and agility. The best thing you can do is treat it like a bear because they have sensitive hearing. Stand your ground, face towards the animal AT ALL TIMES and start yelling with your arms waving in the air, making yourself look bigger. Also, if your area has bear or mountain lions, either bring a firearm and/or bear spray. Bear spray will most definitely work on mountain lions, it hinders their sight and their ability to smell which they need to attack properly. 9 times out of 10 it will bolt as soon a you shoot it with the spray.

    First instinct is to run, I know, but guess what? That immediately triggers the bears/mountain lions natural instinct to chase. Never ever run unless you are running directly toward them. Never ever turn your back either. They are 100% survival 100% of the time. A meal is a meal is a meal, and a meal means survival. You have to become a meal that isn't worth their effort. 1st world humans have never know survival instinct like a wild animal has. Their life consists of eat, sleep, and mate, in that order.

      After a couple of attempts at a head on heartshot at a charging hog, you want knock down power. A heart shot within about 30 meters won't save you because he'll hurt you even if he's the real walking dead. Those tusks aren't for show. Shoot at his shoulder and legs to break the charge, as hollow points tumble and cause shattering.
      It may sound like I'm joking or exaggerating, but a hog is is more dangerous than a bear. If he can ever knock you off your feet, he'll stab you to death with those tusks and then eat your intestines just to remember you by. They have no fear, the adults are always surly and ill tempered, and the females are almost as dangerous as the boars.

As I did there was a huge cougar digging in the trash right behind me. It was like he never knew I was there until I stood up because he was just as scared as I was. He snarled at me then immediately shot off like a rocket the opposite way. In 2 seconds he was completely gone.

    I remember when my friend told me about one Saturday. His wife asked him to check on the dogs, and why they barking so much... Grumbling, stumbling, he walked to garage, opened the door to shout at his hounds aaaaaand came face to face with a mountain lion. Fish & Game said, "Yeah, we thought there was a cougar 'round here..."
    "Dude, you didn't tell anyone?"

      The thing is. There's way more dogs than mountain lions. And way more dogs living in close quarters with humans so there are more attacks.

    I can never get over the victim behavior of people in these encounters. I've worked with tigers, lions, mountain lions, panthers and cheetahs at two different wildlife sanctuaries. if you turn your back or show fear, they take the advantage. That's nature. if you walk towards them purposefully ( having a big stick helps ) they typically take the defensive posture and run. Think of it this way, they see you as neutral, meaning you could either be predator or prey, this is why they're always sizing you up. Will you run or will you go on the offensive? Hint, one of those lives, the other dies while running. Also, the big hiking stick is important. For some reason just about every animal's fear of humans increases when you have a stick. They know it's a tool that extends your reach. Pick up a stick near a mere housecat, see what happens. Cat based animals don't like that at all.

    There was a huge dog in my yard. I saw him on the driveway. I open the back door and as fast as I could ran straight towards him! Literally as fast as I could. I promise you this dog probably thought he was going to be eaten alive. I caught him by surprise he didn’t even know I was a human in the first moments of our encounter. I almost grabbed his rear end this dog didn’t even have time to make up his mind on what to do but the law of the wild says if you were being chased then whoever is chasing you unprovoked has the upper hand! That is the language of the wild. I have seen men walk down lions and take a meal away from the pride of lions because they are going to them and the lions are so shocked! Once again the law of the wild says if something is coming to you they know whatever is coming to them Feels like they have the upper hand so it’s shocking to be on the receiving end of that!

    If you’re a full grown man weighing well over 200lbs (100kg) you shouldn’t be scare of a mountain lion. Square up on it, you’re bigger than it and can easily over power it. It knows you’re a predator too but once you run and show fear that’s when they’ll get you. But if you’re willing to stand your ground and fight it. Ain’t no mountain lion is gonna want to fight a human being for food. It rather run away.
