Wow. What an experience. From how you describe it --- if you hadn't seen
it, there's agood chance you'd have wound up being dinner, eh? It actually
made a run at you --- amazing. Not many people can claim to have had a puma
make a run at them. Were there reports of other attacks on humans in that
area, do you know offhand? They usually get into a pattern of attacking
humans --- if they attack one person they usually can be counted on to do it
again.

Well, from how Andrew describes his experience, I wonder if he also might
have wound up being dinner if the cat hadn't stepped on a twig and attracted
Andrew's attention to it --- he had a shotty right at hand and still it took
a couple rounds fired overhead to make it run away. Yeah, it's no
consolation that cougar attacks are rare --- if you're the one in a zillion
getting attacked, LOL.
