Mule Kills Mountain Lion

Never seen anything like that!

These pics came from a guy in Arizona. Yes, the mule killed the mountain lion. The lion had been stalking them for the better part of the morning, on the way out to a hunt. They were pretty sure it was after one of the dogs. The cat ambushed them, and the mule pictured tossed its rider and went into attack (defense) mode, the horses scattered and shots were fired but no one was sure if they hit the cat or not. Unfortunately, it wasn't until it was almost over that one of the guys started snapping pics. The mule finally stomped the cougar to death after biting and throwing it around like a rag doll. The dogs wouldn't even come close until the mule settled down.

359Henrie said two years at least. First time I've seen it. Was googling for wildlife in and around North Fort Worth. Nearly hit a Coyote (second time this month) last night on the way home from work.

'A mule is an animal with long, funny ears;
he kicks up at anything he hears.
His back is brawny, but his brain is weak;
he's just plain stupid, with a stubborn streak.
So if you hate to go to school,
you may grow up to be a mule.

Sure beats being a mountain lion....

Yeah for mules. That shows they are not the, "dumb bunnies" many think they are. The moral is, be nice to a mule...

Looks like the Mule wanted his $2 cents worth of the excitement.
