  • A Salt Lake City man had a terrifying encounter with a cougar while hiking in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah... and he captured the confrontation on video. Jared Smith told FOX 13 he was hiking the Broads Fork Trail when the mountain lion suddenly appeared and followed him within 20-30 feet.

    The mountain lions on these Utah paths within the last year haven't been too shy around humans. I know it's 2 incidents of a cougar stalking someone, but that would make me extra cautious out there.

    I really find it hard to sympathize for people in these situations because it’s like they lack common sense if your involved in any outdoor activities weather you think it’s a harmless activity or not you need to be prepared for any wild animal. I live in a nice neighborhood 4 of my neighbors are state police officers but yet I still carry my gun to take out the trash or check the mail. Some might say it’s pointless to arm yourself when you taking out the trash and I agree however I would rather have it and not need it then need it and not have it

    Running from a big cat is the worst thing to do - it triggers their predator instincts. Instead, scream and stand your ground. Better, run towards it to make it think you are a predator.
