@@robertlinton5966 You sure? He made meat eater, so he can expose how a good conservationist would act. I agree, to some degree but Steve usually like to expose himself like this to show everyone who do watch, the romantic version of hunting, but also includes the bad luck of hunting; hence, this episode.

[@robertlinton5966]

@@p41s3r I love to hunt and fish; however I seldom watch the product placement shows that are typical of the genre. I was hooked by the first episode I saw when they were unsuccessful at harvesting game. I agree with your statement. I just have the idea that Meat Eater has probably grown so much that Steven has lost the freedom he had in the early episodes. You see him hunting with Mat and I almost feel like he would trade places with him if it were not for his desire to spread his brand of conservation. No one man has done more in our lifetime to change the perception of a modern sportsman in a positive direction. I am grateful.

The fact that this show doesnt BS and finds truths in the hunt/losses makes it leaps and bounds ahead of literally ANY other hunting show I have ever seen.

[@OWLyMULLET]

Hunting with hounds in my eyes is one of the more ethical ways of hunting bear or lion. it gives you the opportunity to observe the animal and decide weather it is too young to kill or maybe the animal has young ones. in many many cases out here in the mountains of Idaho you may tree the same cat or same bear year after year.

[@AliShah-vc6dy]

All for hunting, but I could never hunt a mountain lion. Such a rare and majestic animal. A true beauty👍

[@Constable_Bob]

This episode is awesome, because it shows how professional hunting doesn’t always result in high-fence success.

[@jglazemoney]

2 weeks ago, I was hiking up into the Santa Rita's down there on a fresh layer of snow and out of the blue, a mountain lion crossed the trail 50 feet in front of me. 4 seconds later, gone. Amazing animals. I'm not sure I could ever pull the trigger on a mountain lion. I think I'd settle for tracking it successfully. That is an amazing accomplishment.

Having men like these out in front of any type of hunting gives me even more confidence that our sport, past time, tradition however you choose to describe it ,will carry on with what is best for the animals and their habitat making the decisions.

[@josie4065]

@raz issakov There’s no need to hate on someone who is bringing constructive contributions to a discussion. I get your point, but it’s not always true. Hunting with a rifle is no better or worse morally than with any other weapon that is consistently and quickly lethal. In fact, many of the hardest hunts one can do are rifle hunts. Yes, you can sit in a blind and shoot a deer that walks in close enough for a shot, and there are definitely people who do that not really my style of hunting, but there’s nothing wrong with it per se. That being said, one of my dreams is to do my duty and help manage the northern rockies wolf population. The most effective way to do that is with a sniper rifle. Not gonna lie, bowhunting wolves would be pretty awesome, but since it’s necessary to bring the population back to reasonable levels, it is generally important to me to choose a weapon that will allow me a higher success rate. But until I get a decent rifle (I’m a poor college kid), I’ll be out there with my bow and handgun 😂

[@racebiketuner]

I've hiked thousands of miles through their habitat in the last 40 years. I only got a glimpse of one once during a drought. When it gets very dry, the deer come down lower to feed and bring the lions with them. The cat was near a stream in a rocky canyon less than four miles from my house. Just saw its top side gliding through the bushes for a few seconds.

I've only encountered two lions in my life. The first one was in Southern California, and the second was in Northern Arizona. However, on both occasions they were gone in a flash, and both times I nearly pooped my drawers lol. Do not underestimate these animals because they're incredibly intelligent, agile, and extremely fast. If you're attacked chances are you will never see them coming.

This hunt must have taken place back in 2012 or so.

Well said! Bare ground lion hunting is badass. However, I would be careful about saying hunters care primarily about killing a lion. While that is part of the motivation-and often necessary in the case of problem animals, or justifiable as a source of meat-to simplify the whole experience to the killing of the lion removes so many of the other parts of the experience that are so meaningful.

I just love seeing dogs do what they're bred for.

[@heathenwolf4997]

Three main differences between canine and feline prints, 1. Canines don't retract their claws. All cats, except the cheetah, does. That's the main difference. 2. Cat prints, usually because of size, their prints are usually larger. 3. Their fur in the paws is usually fuzzier, makes for an almost snowshoe type appearance, (for cats that live in cold climates).

Haha it’s funny how ignorant you are, @Lee Vegan

[@ron9269]

This episode has a happy ending

[@faultyd3vil917]

By happy ending do you mean he harvested a mountain lion

[@ron9269]

@@faultyd3vil917 If I remember correctly they didn't actually kill anything in this video. Lol

[@ryanhickey6812]

His videos are very well thought out and presented in a respectable manner. As a hunter, I always disliked mountain lion hunting and probably because I thought they were so cool when I was a kid. I never really understood why people do hunt them, but after watching this there's more to it than just sending the dogs. I would never put anyone down that does participate in any style of hunting- but this video just shows a different size of "Catching a Lion." Great clip!

[@Dabadabadoobie]

The level of RESPECT those dawgs have is awesome.

[@mariemccann5895]

Awesome. Love those hounds, proper hunting dogs.

[@yankeetherebel]

Goodness sakes! After watching this, I'm amazed that there's ever been such a thing as people being attacked by mountain lions. It almost seems unbelievable!

[@ecs3821]

.... you’re joking right. They attack where the populations are the most dense. Obviously they don’t attack much out there in AZ but in CA it’s a different story.

Douglas County oregon- cougar country. He should go there. Would not be disappointed.
