I've always maintained that everything in a kitchen (includes outdoor camp kitchens) is heavy, sharp, hot, surly, or some combination of those.
Don't mess with the cook.

I live in a sparsely populated area of private properties full of mountain lions, but they don’t get near people here. It could be, that they tend to more likely go after vacationers in the more populated parks and the like. Familiarity, maybe...?

I’ll share some information that I learned in a class over 30 years ago.
When an animal with a large-enough mouth attacks, don’t pull your hand away. Try to jam your hand/fist down the animal’s throat. They let go real fast and run away.

Cat had rabies. Good thing it got panned (and shot) before it could bite.

walloped the stunned cougar again,...popped it several more times for good measure... shot it a couple times — just to be sure.
They could have ran over it with their car just to really, really make sure.........LOL!

Just shows that being armed with most any weapon is better then not being armed.

It would take some nerve to try that with, say, a grizzly bear.

The class was aimed at domestic animals. I should have referenced that. :-) Although a cougar is not a domestic animal, its bite is about the size of a large dog.
To: spel_grammer_an_punct_polise
Good advice, hard to remember. Don’t want to be in the circumstance to take advantage.

Ruh-roh....hopefully the guy didn’t violate the “48-hour frying-pan purchase law”....or the “one-frying-pan-a-month” law.....

It sounds like the guy toting the table didn’t get any licks in.

Mountain lions are cooking now?
Looking forward to the new show “Cooking with Cougars”.

Mountain lion = dangerous
Rabid Mountain Lion = KYA goodbye (unless you have a frying pan)

Not obvious from the title, but this in fact, qualifies for the doggie ping list....
