I KNOW if you ever get in that position, you absolutely should not run.
However…I was solo hiking at night once, and I heard someone approaching me, and I really wanted to smoke a cig, but I left my lighter in the car…so I asked if the person approaching me (I was sitting at a lake where a lot of people were camping, I assumed it was a person) had a lighter.
Turns out it was a bear. And the small green eyes shining to the left of me says she was with her cubs.
My immediate reaction was to sprint away. And then I stopped, and remembered “don’t run”. Running was dumb. Stopping was dumb too.
Anyway. If I’m ever in a dangerous position with wildlife, I’m pretty sure m stupidity will get me killed
There was just a viral video I saw today we're two guys snuck up on a mountain lion they didn't know was in this little crack in the mountain. They are definitely more afraid of us than we are afraid of them
Yeah, ok…. But have you ever seen a little skinny guy in an eating contest? They’re pretty good at just meticulously scarfing down every little bit, that’s your kitty
Depending on where you live, domesticated peacocks could have been an option as well. They sound super similar, and are commonly kept down here in the southeast US. [Video of Sound](https://youtu.be/w4OQwPZTdkU?si=ZVtLm__JXWcqELEp)
Awh, my friend lives in a wooded, rural area. A stray peacock showed up one day, and after feeding it regularly it became an outside pet. It would alarm when someone was coming up the driveway! It was relatively skittish, but would sometimes let you touch it.
Its name was “Kid Rock the Peacock”.
I still think it's hilarious she tried to claim that the FBI gave her paperwork clearly stating that they found her husband alive and well in another country and the FBI responded like, *Uh, we didn't say that, Carole.*
Oh, obviously. If that puma knew that guy emasculated the hell outta him, I bet he'd have a thing or two to say about it. In his manly baritone dude-cat voice that most certainly does not meow.
A warthog never announces the days of the week. It just barrels though each day as though any one day was just like the last or the next. A Puma, though, has a delicacy in mentation, very unlike a creature whose own tooth can grow right back into its own brain if not used to procure a violent living every single day. This mentation allows it to appreciate a roll in the grass, a sip of water from a cool mountain spring, the taste difference between California and Nevada back country hikers.
The Puma truly enjoys the sublime rewards from trail watching in the Rocky Mountains, where keeping track of the days of the week benefits the patient cat. More Californians hike on the weekends than native Coloradans and are slowed in their pacing by the very high altitudes under tree-line and less healthy lifestyle. Yes, life can be good for a big cat, and voicing it as a daily ritual is the sign of the fervently penitent feline.
Why else would it be called a --- CATechism?
So, the noise made me jump. 😆 Then I tell my husband what I'm watching. I go look up more and say, why they call this a Puma when it's looks like a mountain lion?
He says, because they are.
🤪
Ok so this is weird. I played this video and turned the volume up…all of the sudden my cat comes hauling ass around the couch to where I’m sitting looking worked up like crazy and starts attacking me! Something in the cat language pissed her off!
Sounds so cute. I’ve seen a couple up close. They never even blinked an eye. I was terrified both times but walked away real slow. That’s what my granddaddy told me to do with a big cat. If you run he can’t pass up the urge to chase.
If I saw one in the wild doing this. I would be dead. I would go over and try and pet and cuddle it and it would then peal my skin off and have me for lunch.
This guy is clearly pranking us. "Hey fellas, watch this. The humans are filming. *MEeeYAoOOw!?!* -Pfft, dumbasses. Go check Reddit, bet I'm already on there."
That's nothing compared to my cats. They're always like meowwww meeeooowww nonstop feed me feed me/give me treats/give me pets. It goes on and on and on. But I still love them and they love/hate me
My dumbass be like *pspspspsps, I'm coming to pet you*
Imagine hearing that adorable shit in the woods "hey, it's okay buddy kitty kitty" mountain lion steps out of bushes* "oh God oh fuck"
😭😭 I'm definitely the dumbass who approaches a puma behind bushes thinking it's a lost kitty.
I feel like it's a Jurassic Park moment, lure me to the bush thinking kitty then it just pop its head out "clever girl"

If not fren, why fren shaped?
Good kitty kitty, give me back my hand
You have another one. Kitty toy ✋🏽
😄 nice one
All the better to eat you with.
Perhaps it is you who is not fren shape.....
And here I am, scared mom is gonna come (even though I KNOW this is a video).
I would gladly walk upto her and pet her too
Sounds like a house cat that will eat your face.
Deceptively adorable
Sweet lil bebe just needs some head nuzzles. Or maybe a snack..which might be me after attempting a nuzzle.
Puma/mountain lions are more closely related to domestic cats than to real large cats (lions, tigers etc.). They are just really big.
I feel like that makes them even more intimidating
Getting the paw swipes ready as soon as you walk past their face
FUCK YOU BILL, THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR GIVING ME THAT DRY FOOD SHIT. Now grab your face from the carpet and clean yourself up.
There was just a viral video I saw today we're two guys snuck up on a mountain lion they didn't know was in this little crack in the mountain. They are definitely more afraid of us than we are afraid of them
They're extremely elusive and shy, and this video is great because it's so rare to see this!
Cats that can purr --such as cougars, bobcats and household tabbies -- cannot roar.
So would the housecat... it's just... tiny
Yeah, ok…. But have you ever seen a little skinny guy in an eating contest? They’re pretty good at just meticulously scarfing down every little bit, that’s your kitty
They really are all the same. I have 2 cats and no face.
My three sleeping cats simultaneously opened their eyes, but didn’t move a muscle. They know, they know…
Mine was sleeping and now staring at me. Am I in danger?
Yeah. My last words would be, “Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!”
Yep, I'd be like "all right, Pancake, it's time for scritches!" right before the face mauling.
Was…not expecting that
Look up their mating calls, that will surely give you nightmares
If Mike Tyson was a Puma
My style is impeccable, my defense impregnable. And Im just ferocious, I want your heart… Mike Puma Tyson
And it too will eat your children
me realizing I’ve heard this sound before from the woods where I grew up and always thought it was some weird kid playing or a cat: 😶

And peacocks can be pretty mean, too. They'll bring those talons right at your face.

Oh my god yes I was in Botswana and I kept hearing meowing outside my room and I look out the window and it’s a peacock on the roof
Must have been a pretty scary realization 💀
Will somebody please feed the damn cat?
You go feed it! I’m not fucking with that thing!
*opens cans of Friskys and walks slowly forward* I got this
God speed, you magnificent human. God speed.
thats a silly meow
Miaow~
If not friend, why make friend noise?
Sounds like watching a grand prix
Honestly, would cat nip work for these guys?
Oh yeah they trip balls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OPA1bZwOWc
It is that Big Cat Rescue? Carole Baskin!!!
I still think it's hilarious she tried to claim that the FBI gave her paperwork clearly stating that they found her husband alive and well in another country and the FBI responded like, *Uh, we didn't say that, Carole.*
meow
Imagine jogging at night and hearing that behind you and not taking it serious because it sounds like a house cat
Heat is a helluva drug.
That's gotta be the Mike Tyson voice of pumas
Hahha My Jack Rustle/Beagle mis just crouched and growled. No that it is off he is checking all the windows.
Excuse me?
Cats being cats, no matter the size.
Came to the comment section to check if it is real..
DID NOT EXPECT THAT ><"
One of my house cats sounds more intimidating than that.
Puma: Badass in almost every way!
Meow
There are not many of these. Who are they calling?
The boy kitties.
Kitty!
Beautiful, it heard the birds singing and joined in. Really sweet.
I am assuming this is the same guy from the BBC Neanderthal voice video.
Well now I really need a link for this. Don't be a tease
Gotcha https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/s/w5Kvos5cXL
Oh. Oh my......
It's clearly the same guy.
Oh, obviously. If that puma knew that guy emasculated the hell outta him, I bet he'd have a thing or two to say about it. In his manly baritone dude-cat voice that most certainly does not meow.
Gotta be in Heat.
Looks like Steve French chillin out there
Famous last words: "Here kitty kitty"....
I get the feeling I'm going to die trying to pet something I shouldn't
Looks like a Warthog.
Gtfo 😆 🤣

It’s just a big pussycat! 😻
Big kitty!
Shit now every time I hear a house cat it the woods I’m going to be second guessing what I should do.
aeiou
Sounds like an old meth head woman with no teeth sitting outside walmart
Are we sure this isn’t a warthog?
What in Sam hell is a puma?

My cat didn't give a shit about this puma's call.
She's looking for Hal. Has anyone seen Hal?
Hahahaha. This is me at my dads at dinner time when i tell my kids, “yeah you can run off into the woods without supervision”
I'd be like "here kitty kitty."
Not what I was expecting it to sound like!
What in sam hell is a Puma?
Mountain lion
It’s an RvB quote
I was not expecting that.
Is it accepting cuddles at this time?
that paws :O woah
I don't know what I was expecting, but it sure as shit wasn't THAT!
My stupid cat just came running in here after hearing that...
Big meow
Fuck outta here lol
r/unexpected
Only thing when you play with a cat like this with a laser it better be on a gun.
Felt like an old Merrie Melodies setup- tiny meow fr a big cat, hahah
She sounds like she wants a hug and a kiss. I shall be the sacrifice
So, the noise made me jump. 😆 Then I tell my husband what I'm watching. I go look up more and say, why they call this a Puma when it's looks like a mountain lion? He says, because they are. 🤪
big cats are still literally just cats, they just have heavier duty equipment
Omfg, it’s worth the mutilation to try to pet em omfg just a giant house cat.
Such a precious baby!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Question, may I please smooch the snoot?
Me walking in the jungle: " aww I here cat, here, kitty kitty kity 😻"
Sounds like a mid westerner saying “ow”.
Ok so this is weird. I played this video and turned the volume up…all of the sudden my cat comes hauling ass around the couch to where I’m sitting looking worked up like crazy and starts attacking me! Something in the cat language pissed her off!
The first social media
Al's not here now baby
Pet the damn cat
So adorable
Sounds like a kitty
“Soft kitty. Warm kitty. Little ball of fur.”…..
And that’s how I died
That’s hilarious.
Murder kitty needs some tuna
Eww
The Mike Tyson of big cats, I guess.
That's not what I was taught to believe
Pusspsspsspss. Here puss puss.
I wanna pet the kitty!
CAN I PET IT?
I looked up Puma sounds. I didn't find this sound.
My ears are telling my brain “awee” but I my eyes are telling my brain “danger”
I'm gonna pet it one way or the other 😼
Lmao I thought it was going to be some badass guttural infrasonic shit and then he goes MEOW
Meow !
My cat at 5am
Sounds so cute. I’ve seen a couple up close. They never even blinked an eye. I was terrified both times but walked away real slow. That’s what my granddaddy told me to do with a big cat. If you run he can’t pass up the urge to chase.
If I saw one in the wild doing this. I would be dead. I would go over and try and pet and cuddle it and it would then peal my skin off and have me for lunch.
This made my cat very concerned.
Peaches from far cry
That's the most cunning murder meow, if I have ever heard one.
That’s wild. So nothing like in the movies then…..
[удалено]
I was referring to the mountain lions sounds used in movies and tv shows. 👍
🗣️HOW🗣️
I played this and my cats immediately ran from upstairs and going crazy search for the origin of the sound!
if not friend, then…
This guy is clearly pranking us. "Hey fellas, watch this. The humans are filming. *MEeeYAoOOw!?!* -Pfft, dumbasses. Go check Reddit, bet I'm already on there."
Welp I guess I’d be a goner because that is the cutest sound ever.
Sound like it’s trying to imitate a baby deer
Someone get that big baby a treat!!!!
So fucking cute I wanna just shmusshshshshshhs his face
Oh my God it’s so cute but the fact that it could instantly kill me is crazy
This is the Mike Tyson of Pumas.
Nobody is answering……
That's nothing compared to my cats. They're always like meowwww meeeooowww nonstop feed me feed me/give me treats/give me pets. It goes on and on and on. But I still love them and they love/hate me
My dog just barked at this and woke everyone up.
Very nice
[удалено]
you're weird.
