Although, that guy in Ft. Collings did kill a mountain lion with his bare hands, so he says.

A few years ago I watched a documentary about wildlife living in rural areas of America. A couple from Denver had caught and restrained a Cougar that had wandered onto their property. The guy lost the tip of his thumb and got scratched up really bad but otherwise everything worked out OK. The Cougar was taken away by the wildlife control people... I have a lot of respect for that couple. They could have killed the Cougar but chose not to.
