“And, releasing it in a local open space is silly, these animals have HUGE roaming territories.”
It is far worse than merely silly. Those enviro-whackos were careful to release that cat in an “Open Space Park”.
Unfortunately, the nice “Open Space Rangers” posted those parks with a rule board on which is a rule “Open carry is prohibited.”
Colorado is an open carry state, so the result of the banning of open carry is that the Open Spece park visitors are warned on the back of the same visitor information board to “Fight back if attacked, with your bare hands, if necessary.”
The rule first stripd the visitor of their Unalienable Right to defense of their life and then has the sheer arrogance to ask a human to fight a puma with their bare hands.
PS The “Open Space Ranger” IS armed.
PPS Who annointed the AgencyPerson and made them the UberMenschen, ala the Third Reich’s concept of the Ubermenschen?
Boulder has Space Rangers?? COOL! I ~always~ wanted to be one of those... since I was like, seven years old.

You’re right - I humbly apologize for my gross understatement :)
I’d say.. red-pepper spray in a holstered system, at 16% concentration might do the trick.
But — if for some reason I HAD to wander through some horrible crime-laden section of a town where I felt I had to carry any weapon for my personal safety.. would I go there for a picnic or to “commune with nature”? No.
So why would I go to any park or place where I know dangerous non-human-fearing predators have been released? — (to be clear, I am still talking about animals.)
Hippy-tree-huggers are drawn to “open spaces” like they are the Meccas of Gaia. When one gets munched on, it’ll be Bush’s fault. It’s just his destiny, right? *nod*
The Open Space Rangers can sleep well at night knowing this.
