Mountain lions are one of the most feared predators in the United States and even though many fear this animal due to misunderstanding, they are still dangerous enough to have a large amount of respect.
Luckily the chances of a prepper running into one in the wilderness are very slim since they are reclusive creatures that are fearful of humans. It's rare that they would attack unless they have cause to.
Even though getting attacked by a mountain lion is rare they can happen and across the board, these attacks could have been prevented if the person would have followed a few rules that we'll discuss next.
To check out what these rules are and what a prepper should do should he ever encounter a mountain lion while he's bugging out or going through a SHTF situation, memorize the helpful tips after the break.

Go for the eyes, shove your hand down its throat. Try to keep your heels in its crotch pinning its back legs from scratching you. Carry a walking stick for stand off
Don’t try to pet it.

Bring your Dogos with you. 🙂
Don’t run from it fight the damn thing.
I was camping under a bridge one night due to rain when I was overcome by the stench of death. I lean around the corner and there is a Mountain Lion on the other side of the bridge. I grab my knife and step out into view. Then I pee all over the place. I hear a strange growl and it walks away. Phew…
Step 1, carry a fire arm.
Step 2, shoot it in the face.
Step 3 skin it’s hide and wear its flesh
Step 4 return to your people a SPARTAN!
Step 5 be a spartan.
shoot it?
I shot it then eat it make rug out of the skin teeth into a necklace enough said
Have some cat nip
Yes people do eat the meat
Or shoot it in the face
Wear it’s skin
Eat it to consume it’s power… same$#%&!@*though
MIke, I was under the impression no gun avail
Bring your neighbors cat as a decoy
That’s exactly the opposite of what you want to do. Unless you have multiple dogs the size of wolves or larger, a mountain lion can take them.
You should be armed, so shoot it.
Or you can just shoot it
Try to ride it bare-back. Those things are fast.
Throw it a dime bag of cat nip
If I’m bugging out my rifle or pistol will end the encounter….
Start singing soft kitty, warm kitty
Chase the thing like you DO want to kill it. They usually sense these things. Especially on the run from a couple psycho campers looking for adventure and excitement. Or in short, unleash the dragon.
I always though emptying my 17 round magazine of 9mm NATO from my Beretta M9 into the Moutain Lion would sort of show him we are not good friends.

I’ve seen two in person. Guess my luck was with me both times because didn’t have my gun either time. Just a knife.
I tried that song on my ex wife, well we’re divorced now, so I guess it doesn’t work on all predators hahahaaaaaaaa 🙂
Double tap
Always pet the mountain loin backwards they hate this … all cats do
Just shoot the damn thing
Shoot it. Cougar is great tasting meat.
It gets one warning shot. Then it gets shot.
Just have to say … been hiking in the Rocky Mountains and have come across Mountain Lions several times. They don’t want anything to do with people. I’ve had one trot across the trail right in front of me within a few feet and it just kept on going up the hill. It stopped and looked down at me and it moved along. I don’t know why, but I wasn’t afraid. Maybe they sense that .. I don’t know.
Kill the dam cat!!! Food for weeks!!!! Come on ppl!!!!
Attack the eyes and nose mucus membranes are vulnerable
Feed them ur partners leg !!lol!!
What prepped is unarmed?
Try everything not to shoot if I could.But if I absolutely had to well I’ll be wearing their fur to stay warm instead of it.
A box it just a big cat
What’s a Dogo??
Yeah I guess you’re right.
Dogo Argentino
And if you don’t like your neighbor. Then bring them as a decoy. Lol.
I’m not sure if this works. But makes mask or have a plastic mask that has eyeballs on it and wear it on the back of your head. They should not attack if it thinks your still looking at it. I think I saw that on a survival show once.
