My sympathies are entirely with the large cat. :P
She was trespassing in the cat’s kitchen so what did she suspect was going to happen? Basically, she fed her dog to the cat. Glad the dog lived.
Brave beautiful dog-so glad she survived-I have had 2 German Shepherds-both lived to be very old-I still miss them-I only buy a large working/guarding breed puppy to be my canine companion for life...
People who want to kill all the wildlife that can be dangerous have not spoken to a game warden and do not understand things like “balanced ecosystem”-where the predator-to-prey ratio being correct means healthy habitat/animals, good hunting for humans-of deer, etc-the woods are the animals’ home and dining room-we are guests...
I do not understand why there are so many mountain lion attacks in Cali-they are doing something-besides crowding them out of habitat-that is causing problems-I think just about anyone knows that predators like mountain lions and bears are attracted by dogs-especially barking ones-humans either riding a bike or running, etc-they see those as prey to be caught, or as a threat-don’t run, don’t ride a bike and don’t bring the dog on that trail-and carry some bear spray...
There are mountain lions living in the woods less than 2 acres away-we see their tracks when walking/hiking/mowing all the time-they don’t bother anyone-but they will go after a dog that is running around loose-especially in the Spring when the females have kittens they are protecting-most people know this and do not walk their dogs in mountain lion territory this time of year-there are already 2 dogs missing whose owners were letting them run loose down to the riverbank and woods, despite neighbors’ warnings and the large off-leash fine-by now, they have become Mr/Ms mountain lion’s takeout meal.
