They are curious and theyre at the top of the food chain, he said. There are few animals they fear, including humans."
Wrong. Humans are at the top of the food chain, at least some of them. I count myself as one of them. Cougars need to be taught that they are lower than humans on the food chain. That is what hunting traditionally does.

Every year in B.C. people are injured by bears and cougars, but attacks are rare.
Ummm... so which is it?

Good thing this didn't happen in Kalifornia. He'd be facing a fine, or jail time, or both.

> MacPhee said the general advice on cougars is that they attack from behind, so if a person encounters one they should stand their ground, make themselves as big as possible, put their hands over their heads and yell.
Sound advice. It's a shame this fellow felt he had to kill the cougar. Generally (like bears and wolves and rattlesnakes) they are more afraid of humans than humans are of them.
