Colorado trail runner kills mountain lion with bare hands

Rain man?

What may be the most sought-after survival story in America today is about to be told by the as-yet-unidentified Colorado runner who recently fought off an attacking mountain lion and choked it to death with his bare hands.

So far, only a few things are known about the man. He’s a trail runner. Before the attack, he read up on how to survive a mountain lion attack. He lives in Northern Colorado. He’s in his early 30s.

But other details about his background are a mystery.

Journalists from across the world have sought a more complete description of the man’s life-and-death struggle with the wild cat on Feb. 4. After recovering physically from bites to his face and body — and mentally, too — he’s offering up what’s being billed as a one-time description of what happened that day on Larimer County’s Horsetooth Mountain.

He’s scheduled to give a press conference at 1:15 p.m.

The runner will not give any individual interviews following the news conference and half-hour question-and-answer session Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials said. He will then be going on a vacation where he can’t be contacted, according to Rebecca Ferrell, spokeswoman for parks and wildlife

It had to be either young or sick.

I had mama cougar/lion scream at me once about 20 yrs ago and ran home so fast the piss didn't hit my legs.

From what I read last week he heard something behind him and turned just in time to see it jump at him. If he had some ear buds in listening to music and that thing got the back of his neck it's over instantly.

Worst mountain lion ever....



Quote:
The 31-year-old — at 5 feet, 10 inches tall and 150 pounds — skipped the earbuds on this run, opting instead for the sound of his own footsteps. A quarter-mile into his descent from Towers, he heard pine needles rustling on the trail behind him.

"I stopped and turned," he said. "And it's one of those situations where sometimes I turn, sometimes I don't. But in the back of my mind I always wonder if it's something dangerous like a bear or a bobcat or a mountain lion, and in this case it was in fact a mountain lion.

"So I remember seeing that and just having my gut feel the full impact of the situation."

The approximately 80-pound juvenile cougar barreled toward him. Kauffman put up his arms and screamed in an attempt to scare the cat away.

"Unfortunately, it kept running," he said.

The cat leapt at Kauffman's face. He raised his arms in a defensive motion to blunt the initial attack. Its mouth locked around his wrist. One tooth sunk into the meaty part of his thumb, another dug into the top of his wrist.

The mountain lion hugged Kauffman's body, digging its front claws into his back. Its back legs thrashed at his thighs. He tried to throw it off. But with its mouth clamped around his wrist, the two ended up tumbling more than 20 feet off the trail into a gully.

"But during that fall, the cat ended up on its back and it still had my wrist this whole time in its mouth," Kauffman said.

With the leverage of being on top of the cougar, Kauffman used one of his legs to pin the animal's hindquarters to the ground, and then searched for a way to fight back. He grabbed sticks, but they were rotted, and crumbled when he tried to use them against the cat. With his free hand, he found a rock and began hitting its head. The angle was awkward and Kauffman let the cat's legs slip out from under him.

"Its back legs got free at that point and it's scratching my back and my calves and then some more of my thighs a little bit," he says.

"Because I'm a recent cat owner, I know that the back claws are pretty dangerous when it comes down to an attack," Kauffman said. "And I was pretty worried about its claws just sinking into my stomach and groin area."

He was able to repin the mountain lion's legs with his left leg and swung the other around to the cat's throat.

"I got my right foot onto its neck," he said. "And then I was able to get some weight onto its windpipe and that's what eventually suffocated it."

Only when the cat was dead did it release Kauffman's wrist from its mouth.

The whole battle lasted about ten minutes.

Jesus, that’s insane. He’s lucky it wasn’t an adult cat.

Last animal I’d want to contact in the woods, adult mountain lion.
