Was the mountain lion unarmed?

Paws Up, Don't Shoot!

She forgot the other 2 S’s after “shoot”. Regardless now, some leftie idiot will investigate and try to find some fault.

Good choice of rifle and ammo, and good shooting.

I used to tell my daughters "wait until you have all your adult teeth, and lose the zits, you might be something then".

They lived up to the challenge. I'm sure this child will, too.

They had only gone a few hundred yards when her father remembered that he had left the shooting sticks back at the blind.

Shooting sticks? Is that slang for 'rifles' or some sort of hunting accessory?

Shoots mountain lion in self defense? Obviously this is RACISM! Or is it Speciesism?

Even though I’d still prefer the Rem 700, you can’t argue with a 350yd take down.

Man lions will chase wolves off kills. This could have gone the other way. Good for her!

I believe these folks are from Odessa ,Texas.

Some years ago an eight year old boy, son of a New Mexico State trooper, was killed and eaten by a cougar.

I knew an old guy who had a friend killed by one. The friend was wheel chair bound and was deer hunting from a ground stand when a cougar attacked from behind. Bitten on the back of the neck.

Sad part if that LE had to get involved.

Imagine if they had determined that it was not self-defense.

It is sometimes difficult to get non-hunting friends to comprehend that there are things out there that not only can kill you but want to. We are small, slow, soft, and yummy. If we have a gun in hand, we aren’t supper. That’s why I like guns.
