Saw this earlier this morning. I'm assuming was recorded with a go pro mounted to his head or something? Pretty stable cam work and I know I'm not that coordinated to walk backwards for that far.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I bet he will have a weapon with him the next time out... if there will be a next time...

Heard this on the radio this morning. I think he threw a rock at the cat that caused it to take off. Silly to take a hike in an area where you know you could encounter a lion without a firearm.

I had a chance a few years back of petting a semi-tame Florida panther at a roadside zoo in Florida.

I had instant respect for it's lethalness. Just solid muscle. It could mess you up in a heartbeat if it wanted to.

Cool video , thanks for posting.

hands were busy with the stupid camera

seems to be everyone's response these days get it on video

animals like that that have no fear of humans need to be taught too , a lethal shot insures the lesson is never un-learned

Momma was protecting her cubs...seems that was missed...an unfortunate incident that could have turned deadly for both.

Its real enough to make me pucker JabNe!

I think dude got lucky to notice the thing before it landed on his shoulders. Apparently this one looked forward to playing with its food b4 it ate.
