I walk through potential lion country all the time. If I (or anyone) got jumped before I/they could react with a firearm, it could be lights out. Shed hunters spend countless man-hours in lion country, and attacks are very rare. Hunters around here spend countless hours in the woods. I know of few that have seen lions. Some have been watching friends push through brush, with cats following them, unseen. I know of one guy that had a problem with an old, very hungry cat. He shot it.

I thought the problem with the big cats was that they attacked from behind.
If you're alone and you stop to tie your shoe, it doesn't matter what you're carrying if the cats got you by the neck.
