Mountain Lion Kid


What's with this kid on the news who got attacked by a mountain lion and he barely even has scratches from his head being chewed on? He just held still? First of all, I don't know how you could do that, and second of all, that sign we saw at Mount Rainier National Park clearly stated that if you were attacked by a mountain lion to fight back vigorously. So which is it? Hold still? Or fight back with all you've got? I'm so confused. I just don't know what I'm going to do if I get attacked by a mountain lion this week.

well I don't know either but if you do get attacked, can I have all the icecream in your freezer?

They say the same thing for bears. Lie still and look like easy food or run away as fast as you can but don't climb a tree... What? I think you gotta ride your instincts in that situation.

im with charlotta... if you DO get eaten, can i have your apartment?

no seriously, i think it works to scratch 'em behind the ears. cats like that.

I say fight with all your might and then when they are dominating you...well... you might want to play dead at that point.

When you're attacked by a cougar, you're actually supposed to reach into the back of its mouth (between its teeth and gums), grab the cheek, and twist.

Good luck?
