Releasing a trapped mountain lion
Takes some guts to pull this off safely. Good thing the cat didn’t turn on them!

Those guys definitely earned their man cards for that! Even if it is a little on the crazy side!

Re: Releasing a trapped mountain lion
My mom’s 10 lb cat tore me up pretty bad more than once. Can’t imagine the damage a 200 lb cat could do.
I didn’t listen to the audio closely but did anybody have a gun ready?

I didn’t hear anyone say anything about a gun... they clearly knew what they were doing, but I’m still kind of wondering what the plan was if the cat didn’t run away lol
Reminds me of a time when my buddy threw a 4’ shark in the boat... he had no plan and we almost had to bail out.

Re: Releasing a trapped mountain lion
10 years ago I did a float trip in Idaho with a retired Idaho DNR biologist. He used to ride the backcountry on horse, they would tree cougars and tranquilize them. Just before the cougars would pass out and fall, a biologist would climb the tree and lower the cat down with a rope. They would then weigh, measure and collar the cats. Sounded kind of exciting and crazy to me
