Seems like as good a place as any for this unusual story...
This is almost unbelievable!
This may be a first...
A couple from Montana were out riding on the range, he with
his rifle and she (fortunately) with her camera. Their dogs always followed
them, but on this occasion a Mountain Lion decided that he wanted to stalk
the dogs (you'll see the dogs in the background watching). Very, very bad
decision.
The hunter got off the mule with his rifle and decided to
shoot in the air to scare away the lion, but before he could get off a shot
the lion charged in and decided he wanted a piece of those dogs. With that,
the mule took off and decided HE wanted a piece of that lion. That's when
all hell broke loose for the lion.
As the lion approached the dogs, the mule snatched him up by
the tail and started whirling him around. Banging its head on the ground on
every pass. Then he dropped it, stomped on it and held it to the ground by
the throat. The mule then got down on his knees and bit the thing all over
a couple of dozen times to make sure it was dead, then whipped it into the
air again, walked back over to the couple (that were stunned in silence) and
stood there ready to continue his ride as if nothing had just happened.
Fortunately, even though the hunter didn't get off a shot,
his wife got off these four pictures.
