They don’t have mirrors on my wife’s home planet.
I am lucky and belong to a private range. Frequently The range is empty mid week.
The first talk is on safety
Where the car keys are
Where the gate codes are
Where the closest ER is located
(It’s a 10 minute drive to get cell service.)
Tourniquet location
And the talk of Lions- I’m not an attorney but if I see a cat and it is close enough for me to draw a Glock and hit it, it’s stalking me.

Speaking of cats. I could cure this nut-case of her mental illness in no time.
I'd lock her in a rubber room with a mouse. The only way she can leave is after she eats the mouse; without puking it back up.
If she eats the mouse, then I guess I'm wrong about her and she is a cat.
Okay, I've done my part to help her. Do we have any volunteers to watch her use the litter box?

I have spent thousands of hours hunting on foot in the eastern Rocky Mountains between Glacier Park and Benchmark and in western Montana near the Idaho pan handle. I have never had a cat follow me, I have seen them but they were always going away from me or up in a tree. I try to find high ground with a view and sit and glass for hours. I have seen boar grizzlies following my tracks in snow and I have had young bull moose follow me in lower terrain near the Sun River. One good thing about cats is it doesn't take much gun to kill one, my buddies that hunt them usually carry a .243 or 7mm-08. I carry my .375 H&H with a stout .300gr Woodleigh Weldcore load when I am hunting in an area where there are big nasties (except when @Dirty D and I are clubbing, those big nasties only require cheap booze and a pocket rocket).

My area in Eastern Nebraska is near the Missouri river no where near a lions home range. 3 sightings since 1 November. Adult male, adult female and a female with 2 kittens. I have seen the cell phone videos and all 3 guys were very nervous. Its not something that is normal around here.
Haven't seen any in my area but apparently according to Dirty D I have Moose in my front yard???
This looks a bit photoshopped to me... like a real picture punched up. Just too much muscle for head. Maybe I am just being a cynic... cheers, sirhr
I grew up in southwest IA south and a bit east of Omaha. One time when I was in college I went for an early AM snowshoe at Waubonsie state park. Saw some deer tracks the followed the trail, then some giant kitty tracks and 20 feet later there was a lot of blood and a drag trail.
The kitty paw prints were very big, as wide as my snowboot easy.
I skeedaddled.
Talked to a wildlife biologist and he said though not seen often, they were in the hills near the river.
Boot print, paw print, two tail drag marks.
Weve had cats all out lives here, very shy, very curious. Had at least 10 people over the years shadowed by a pair of curious critters.
Crop duster spooked a big male out of a field one day, then a mom with two kits another day.
Family with friends, 6 in suburban going to Christmas party, stop and watch big male stalking a female, big male blocks road for 5-6 minutes. Folks watched amazed, forgot there were 2 35mm cameras in truck, regretted that the rest of their lives.
I was in a tree late one evening, big male circles the tree three times, I said, "Gtf out of here", he screamed back, 30.06 went boom, cat left. I left. Front of my pants were soaked.
3 other hunters had visits from that cat within a half mile of my tree. Cat was curious, never aggressive. Scared us all pretty good.
Several of us could have shot a cat, didnt want G&F on our ass.
Couple of nights in golf cart, cat seen in thermal, watching us. We get closer, cat moves away, keeps equal distance between us, we leave, it follows a bit, quits, we assume, because we are leaving its yard.
Been a normal thing all our lives here, we are more afraid of coming up on crack heads breaking into the truck, or on meth heads cooking, than cats.
So what happened? Did she suck the life outaya or what?
Yes. Fortunately, the curse didn't last. I have my guns to keep me warm now. And that's a very, very, very good thing.
I can do all the things that I like to do and have wanted to do for years. I haven't been sick in over seven years. I haven't had an upset stomach or headache in over seven years. In seven years, I have been able to rebuild my finances to buy knew toys that go bang and things to put on them that quiet the bang. I can buy the many little things that you put in the toys that make them go bang.
There is life after divorce and it is good.
I still like girls but they only look good when they have a rifle in their hands and I don't have to marry them.

If you talk really calmly they like their nose rubbed!!
And you shit your filthy whore mouth! Don’t you have some highly venomous butterflies there in the penile colony to deal with or some freaky shit like that?!
Another elk season, muzzle loader, we walked past a camp headed back to our truck. Stopped to talk to a guy sitting by the fire, it was about 1630 and inquired abuot how hunting was going. He said he was done for the season. Seems he had a cat approach him at about ten yards and get onto
a crouch, well being worried takes aim and the muzzle loader goes CLICK, which was probably almost deafening, well it was loud enough to scare the cat off. I'm sure he need a change of drawers after that. He was planning on just keeping the fire company for the remaining three days. We looked the next couple of days but no joy!
Yes. G&F, and the university say they are travelling Florida panthers, but have yet to DNA one to verify. All we know is, it's a large long tail cat..... panther, cougar, lion, whatever, bfc...
State has them on the no shoot list...
And yes, we have snow too every now and then. Cat tail drag pics came from January 16,17,18 - 2018 snow we had. Tail drag pics are from 4.5 miles south of my house.
GA DNR says the same about the couple of S GA sightings. If it's a "FL cat" in GA or AL, is it still a FL Cat?
NC Wildlife was adamant there are no long tail cats. One gets hit by a car I believe around Spruce Pine or maybe Micaville. Wildlife comes and gets the cat. They don't know why it was there, but still "no long tail cats in NC". OK...
I first read about Sasha Siemel in Capstick's book, "Death in Silent Places." Mr. Siemel got bored with shooting jaguars with a rifle. So he decided to kill them with a spear. If you want to read about a man with no fear do some research on Sasha Siemel.
This video has some footage of him killing a jaguar with a spear.
By the way, I had the opportunity to see a black jaguar in a Holland & Holland store in LA back in the 1990's. They had it there as part of a promotion for a book signing by Craig Boddington, who I also had the pleasure to meet.
Anyway, you don't get an appreciation for how darn big that steroid filled pussy cat is until you're five feet away. They had a 3/8 inch steel chain around it's neck on a balcony outside the store. When that overgrown feline looked at you it felt like you were on his menu.

That would suck big time. I think I would call it a season as well if I didn't have sidearm to carry. Nothing worse than a gun you cant trust to go boom when shit gets real. We used to have a 2 day ML season and we hunted it with .50 and .54 cal. Round ball, triple F powder and no.11 caps. Had several deer that got a new lease on life over the years after just the cap went off. Every time you pulled the trigger you wondered if it would ignite. Glad I didn't have big cats to worry about.
You DGAF until you have licked the rifle barrel of the dude hunting you. This fawn is a badass!
Since I talked too much in the motivational thread:
I love hunting but 1J gets pissed when I mount his deer.
I have no idea why this reminds me of Tucker and LL. ?
?

This one stalked my buddy last year up on MT. Adams. And no it could not see it’s own reflection in a mirror either!

Killed: Iris M. Kenna, 56, of San Diego; high school counselor, birder. Five-foot-4, 115 pounds.
Where: Lookout Fire Road in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, 30 miles east of San Diego. The attack site is about 5 miles from the Pacific Crest Trail north of Mount Laguna.
The attack: Kenna was apparently attacked from behind and dragged off the trail. Her body was found after some other hikers came across her glasses and daypack.
The lion: An adult male was killed. It had recently eaten a deer when it was slain, indicating it did not have trouble hunting its usual prey.
January 8, 2004
Killed: Mark Jeffrey Reynolds, 35, of Foothill Ranch; account executive with a sports marketing company, competitive mountain biker.
Where: Cactus Hill Trail in Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park, a county park several miles east of Irvine.
The attack: Reynolds’ bike was found on the trail; its chain was off, and he had apparently been repairing it. Speculation is that he had been crouching next to it when the lion attacked. His body was found after the lion, protective of the cache, attacked another bicyclist later that day at the same spot.
The lion: A 2-year-old male, 110 pounds, was killed.
There have been four attacks in Orange County since 1986, one of them fatal. In that time period, there was a single non-fatal attack in Los Angeles County

Their are cats all over California - as the drough pushes deer to graze on lawns and coyotes transition to eating poodles and house cats, the mountain lions follow their prey into the urban area.
So far, not many human interactions. Like with Sharks, don’t swim alone and survival goes up dramatically.

At one time a buddy of mine had harvested the 4th largest cat in Colorado. A few years ago I tried to research it to see where his cat stood in the record books. The Colorado record mountain lion was harvested in 2004 and beat the old record by 1/16”. The old record stood for 100 years. The old record was held by a man named Theadore Roosevelt.
