As dangerous as it is, a man who nearly lost his life while fighting with a lion has narrated how he was able to kill the wild animal with his bare hands.

Travis Kauffman, has shared details of how he was able to kill a mountain lion with his bare hands while out running.



Kauffman, 31, said he had gone out for a hike when he started hearing some sounds and within seconds the lion jumped out from no where and pounced on him.

”It was going up towards my face so I threw up my hands to kind of block my face, at which point it grabbed onto my hand and wrist and from there it started to claw at my face and neck.

“And that’s when kind of my fear response turned into more of a fight response.

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

“I was able to shift my weight and get a foot on its neck…I stepped on its neck with my right foot and just slowly after a few minutes I thought I would be getting close and then it would start thrashing again and I had a few more scratches that resulted from those thrashes at that point, and I’d say another couple minutes later it finally stopped moving.

Rebecca Ferrell, who works with Colorado Parks and Wildlife, said;

“It’s definitely not something you hear every day.

“We know it sounds hard to believe, but his survival instinct kicked in and he did what he had to do.”

It was a mountain lion, which is normally smaller than a regular one.
It was also a juvenile one hence why he could strangle it so easily.
If it was an adult mountain lion na R.I.P. we for see everywhere.

If I didn’t see the news and hear it from his mouth I wouldn’t have believed for a minute.
Then again bare handed humans have killed wild animals multiple times throughout history.
There are stories of people suffocating lions and tigers by fisting... I’ll say ‘arming’ them.
They shove a full arm into the animal’s throat thereby suffocating it to death.
With a pointy stick man becomes the ultimate predator in the jungle.
Now imagine wielding a shotgun.

This is a lie

Once fought and killed a big Siberia tiger the last time I went to vacation in Russia. It wasn't easy
