Bimbo went hiking in mountain lion country with no gun, and her dog gave its life to protect the idiot.
Bimbo is Italian for little boy.
When we lived in a city in California we often saw coyotes running down the sidewalk next to our house. California has a lot of wildness right up close to homes.
Where we live now we have mountain lions, foxes, skunks, bats, hawks, wild hogs, coyotes, etc. all over the place. As more houses are built the wild things come closer all the time.
Scary, sad truth..

She went hiking on a common trail, and she was less than a mile from a parking lot. Usually mountain lion attacks happen when mountain lions wander in human territtory.
