I hear you! Of course it would give the AR activists coronaries. :)

Humor aside, the sad reality is that a small boy was walking, holding his daddy’s hand when he was ripped out of Dad’s hand by a cougar.
That occurred above Boulder, and there were several adults walking together when it happened.
BAD KITTY!
Enviro whacko types like Abbey who said “It isn’t wilderness if there isn’t something out there that can kill and eat you.” Give or take a few words, and you have all too many of the DOW employees, not to forget nearly all Boulderites.
What IS it in the water that causes city wide attacks of Boulder Dementia Syndrome? ;-(
You’re correct, there’s no humor involved when it comes to an encounter between a cougar and human, especially if it’s a child.
For the people who want to remind everyone that cougar attacks on humans are rare only shows their ignorance because for those humans that have been killed or maimed the attack was not rare, it was a 100% chance of attack.
Fortunately many of the F & G Depts in Western states are aware of it and take lethal action against predators that cause problems. Unfortunately CO is not one of them and CA runs a close second in not dealing with problem animals. I have to believe these Depts are getting more and more employees that are AR activists.
