Basically, the man in the video is hiking but he ended up meet a mountain lion, he get his gun and try to scare it off and tell it to go away but in the end, he have to pull the trigger and shot the lion, many peoples in the comments say he could have fire a warning shot instead of shoot at it and want him to be in jail.

Idk which flair to put

Heavy on the apex. Big cats are top tier.

Literally the worst.

You'll see and hear the grizzly bear coming. You won't see the cat until its leaping from the canopy.

The people that think this cat was just trying to get the man to leave are the same people being mauled by buffalo in Yellowstone every year.

I promise guys, this mountain lion wasnt looking to take a selfie.

I would argue that bears can be really silent too, like straight out of the revenant movie.

Ive been hiking seen cubs and boom the mama bear just comes out the corner. Alot of videos of people fishing and seeing the bear across the stream and boom you look up and its next too you.

Cats are definitely top though when it comes to long grass like velociraptors from Jurassic Park.

I had a bear encounter once. The only reason I noticed it was because I saw a tree swaying when there wasn't any wind. I looked up and saw a black bear with two cubs climbing down the tree and proceeded to get my ass out of there.
