"He once killed a mountain lion.. in a campground.. with a shovel"

John Wick reference in case anyone is confused.

All jokes aside, good for him. Takes some balls to go after an apex predator with a shovel.

Could you imagine with the adrenaline going, how hard he must have bashed that thing?

We had an event, long long ago, near Idaho City, in which a guy let his female mountain lion loose to get pregnant. It attacked a kid playing basketball with his dad and grandpa. It was dragging the kid away when gramps bashed it with the basketball, making the lion drop the kid and run off. And pops? He booked it into the house! Claimed he was calling the sheriff.....

Wife left him less than a year later I bet.
