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.

[@luciusdevile9780]

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

[@irishcoffee8201]

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.

[@saintfrancis9619]

In #4 The cat seemed genuinely curious. At one point he actually sat down to have a look at this guy. If you notice his ears are not pointing backwards, which signals attack. Also, the cat's stance is more relaxed not tensed up, ready to leap forward. Once the guy finally raised his voice the cat quickly realized the man as not friendly and turned around.

[@SteffanoDucati]

You just made this up huh ??

[@WildBillCox13]

I noticed the cat's lack of evident aggression, too. No display.

I though the same thing, it saddens me when cops or people kill wild animals when they enter their property, I know they can be very dangerous but they have a right to a life and to be fair we enter their territory and home. I hope they just chased it away or caught it and relocated it somewhere safer for both it and humans.

[@Romi.Frentescu]

Many out doors situations could be fixed by carrying a gun. I never understood why anybody would hike or jog in a wild forest without any protection?

[@westerngroovetv]

They have fairytale imagination about wild animals bc we live in places where predator species populations are extremely low or all grouped up in places most ppl will never go. So on occasion when one does run into one they are usually unarmed bc they probably feel like, why bother?

[@fifthrider]

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.

[@westerngroovetv]

Lmao. So ur a professional handler of wild cats and can't understand how some completely untrained ppl don't do the right thing when encountering a predator?

[@ernieschatz3783]

That all depends on whether it's a cougar or a MILF.

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?"

[@michaelorosco1436]

1:01, Those rocks and stick he just ran by make an excellent deterrent/weapon! NEVER RUN OR PANIC! SCREAM AS LOUD AS YOU CAN AND STAND YOUR GROUND! Grab rocks, branches, anything that will make you look intimidating!

[@xkidgey]

Imagine a video of a pet cat teleporting closer every time you turn your back, only it's bigger than you

[@Randy-jf8rb]

“Hello mister mountain lion” Why are Canadians so nice bruh 😭😭😭

[@GuapCologist.]

The lucky was in the fact that they saw the lion before it saw them. I’ve been dirt biking around south east Utah and they’ll stalk you from cliffs above for hours. As long as you’re in a group they usually don’t anything, we’ve had too many encounters to not respect the gracious beast. Everyone should respect them, hinting them should be a crime

There's family friendly pet dogs that will attack you no matter what lil bs you try to do to deter it. They think a mountain lion won't?! 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.

My cousin had a pet mountain lion. It was before I was born. They said she was friendly and they had her since she was a baby. They had alot of land where they lived ww..

[@jenniturtleburger3708]

I had the craziest mountain line experience ever once. I went back country camping just me a friend and my dog and it was getting close to sunset and we were just sitting out on a tarp like snacking on trail mix or something and all the sudden this mountain lion comes out of nowhere and walks literally less than 10 feet from where we were sitting right in front of us and it’s just walking right past us without a care in the world kind of glanced over at us and then just kept walking and I was just sitting there and we were all silent and I was holding my dog and ate just walked past us went over to a tree and plant down and just kind of started grooming itself and me and my friend just looked at each other like what the wtf is going on. I mean this thing was so close to us you could practically reach out and touch it. So then it later it kind of just strolled off in the woods and made my friend rely what do we do do we go to sleep and so when we weren’t sleeping in a tent either and so we eventually go to sleep and in the middle of the night my dog woke up frantically barking and this mountain lion I’m pretty sure it was trying to creep up on us and grab one of us. Anyway it was the most surreal experience in my life. It was so surreal my friend almost doubted that it actually happened the next day and asked if maybe we had some kind of hallucination lol. But man seeing those shoulder blades and rippling muscles are what stuck out most in my mind. It was huge. So crazy.

[@cvn6555]

I had a similar experience in downtown Boston decades ago. A friend and I were walking back to my apartment after the bars closed. We took a shortcut between Back Bay and South End and stumbled into the midst of about 40 dudes on motorcycles. We did not look like them racially. We stopped talking and they all stopped talking. You could have heard a pin drop as we walked through their group, much like the mountain lion passing by silently and you and your friend being still and quiet. It was too late to turn around as we saw each other at the exact same time. To do so would have indicated weakness and we certainly would have been pursued. My guess is that they generally figured we were packing and that was the only reason we had the stones to walk right through the middle of their group that night. We were not.

[@justanamerican9024]

If you encounter a puma, DO NOT BACK AWAY. Take your coat or shirt, open it but keep it on, grab the bottom of the shirt and raise your hands over your head, bring your hands together and open your arms out quickly, making a 'popping' sound. Shout and become aggressive moving slightly toward it. BTW, anyone who lives in mountain lion country who does not have bear spray or a weapon on them when outside is foolish. Even a knife can make a huge difference. Without a weapon, you are only prey.
