(Video) While Hiking, a Man Caught Footage of Mountain Lion Attacking a Four Point Buck and it’s Incredible

If you need a break from the hectic world, drop everything and take a hike in the welcoming arms of nature. Just make sure you watch out for her welcoming jaws, as well. These hikers nearly learned that the hard way when they stumbled on a mountain lion taking down a formidable buck.

While the mountain lion seems not to have cared about the hikers one bit, you can bet the hikers were certainly shaken by the fact that this brutal predator took down its prey so close to a well-traveled hiking trail. This is becoming a more common occurrence as lion populations climb in well-protected areas.

And with more people turning back to nature, run-ins are bound to happen more often. The message? Enjoy the outdoors to your heart's content, but keep your wits about you!

    Ida shot the cat so the buck could live and grow a little, then I’d shoot the buck.

    I’m not sure but it’s better to be safe. I’m not a hunter but I have lots of friends who do. I didn’t mean to come off the wrong way.

    I’m the type that would probably get hurt out some where like there. In Ohio where I’m from you don’t see cats like those . I’m not sure if Ohio has them. But I have heard befor of people getting hurt befor from them coming from behind people jogging or waking on trails. I’m one who likes to walk around checking new things out cause I love outside stuff. I like looking in creeks for different rocks. So if I came across something like that I truly wouldn’t know what to do lol.

    Do you have any idea how many people hit deer with their vehicles and are injured/ killed? It’s called nature and that’s just the way it works.

    Never get that close, and stay, to a lion’s kill. You may end up dead.
