- According to the sheriff’s office, a family - consisting of a couple, two small children in a stroller and two small dogs - called 911 to report on Monday that they were being followed by a mountain lion along a bike trail east of Placerville.
You lost me at "Bikers warned the couple about the Mountain Lion" and they just kept 🚶 towards danger with their two children with them🤦.
Okay so it isn’t just me then cus I was like TF??
With ZERO weapons and then they tell the whole country this story not even embarrassed at how dumb they were.
Thank god for 911 to stave off natural selection.
I was rooting for the mountain lion myself.
Yeah seriously...please don't have any more children!
We were told there is a mountain lion ahead... yet we kept going.. dummies
EXACTLY 🙄🙄🙄
With children.
and now an animal that was most likely trying to keep its babies safe is dead bc of their idiocy smh!!
Here's another example of someone ignoring warning of a wild animal. This story is about a female hiker that is warned by a group of hikers that there is a bear coming this way. The lady just responds, "okay, well I'm going to continue with my hike" and then she continues to walk towards the bear. Here's a link to the video if you want to check it out: czcams.com/video/Od7KGpEqnT4/video.html
Very stupid people
During Covid I went to go check out a popular hiking trail that I had never been to before. At the trailhead was a warning image of a mountain lion. I was alone and didn't see any other hikers. I went back to my vehicle and drove to the beach.
smart move glad you have some sense man stay safe
On the lost coast of CA there are beach bears.
@@pauld5784 yeah at Griffith Park there are warning signs but people ignore them and that's a big mistake
And then you were hit by a tsunami
More like beach bums
So after being warned they kept walking?! Irresponsible parents. Who thinks that they are lucky enough to put their kids in danger like that?!
SMH
They would be kept going if it was a crazed gun man shooting up the block and someone came running and said to them dont go down the block there is a gun man shooting. His answer to his HMMMM HONEY LETS CONTINUE WE ARE THE PRIVILEGED ONES NOTHING WILL HAPPEN...JACKASSES
How stupid there’s no way I would keep on walking in the direction of a mountain lion and their babies with them
I think they just didnt believed the person who warned them

The mountain lion pretty much got killed for nothing especially since they were warned
Those dogs were like "get me outta here!!!". They knew they were on the menu
Dog say that in China all the time
Running from the mountain lion and turning your back to it would only motivate it to attack. You never want to turn your back to a wild animal. You won't be able to outrun them anyways.
Yep, so much for everyone saying dogs will give their lives to protect you
This is all the parents fault!!! As soon as you get the warning don't take any chances with your kids. Turn around and head the other direction. Because of these "dumb ass entitled" parents they risked the kids lives and got a mountain lion killed in the process. Great job Karen and Kevin 👍
Exactly
Screw them
@@TONY-dq1pk bro you just dont even get it. If you walk PAST the lion (or anything else) EITHER way you are giving it your back while you walk away haha. My point is DONT WALK CLOSE TO THE LION!! Turn around (or walk backwards away) to avoid taking your kids into harms way "right past" the mountain lion that someone just warned you about hahahaha 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😁😁😁
@@TONY-dq1pkso you are saying if someone says there is a huge mountain lion 100 yards up the trail you should walk your kids the 100 yards and right past the lion as to "not turn your back" to the lion haha 😆 thx for the good Xmas laugh my friend!! Your funny!!! I like you your funny!!!! haha
Tony must have deleted his comments 😂
@rainbowssparkle1499 true that!!
Why didn't the family just leave the area so the mountain lion didn't have to get killed? They are walking around his neighborhood. Sad ending.
Hello Marilyn how are you doing today.
That family is beyond stupid and killed that poor cat.
The family made a stupid decision to continue their walk after receiving a warning that the mountain lion was spotted and they made the decision to walk or hike in an area where mountain lions roam freely and live which caused it to be killed unnecessarily. Our actions and dumb decisions play a role in the outcomes of situations of which we choose to put ourselves in.
Totally agree
Then because they wouldn't heed the warning from the biker they went ahead anyway. Then a free range mountain lion gets put down in its territory because of their stupidity of hiking in cougar territory.

Too entitled and proud to listen
That's libbie thinking.
So being very very cautious is the way to protect your children and pets. I would have thought it would be to Turn The Hell Around.
Wow
Right!! 😂 Those parents are total idiots!! 🙄
Mountain lion looked so casual, like it was just minding it's own business walking to where ever it's going before being confronted and killed by humans.
Sad really
It might have attacked in a flash.
Why did the family keep going when they were warned there was a dangerous animal up ahead?! The mountain lion's death is on them. I sure hope they didn't leave cubs alone in the wild to starve to death. 💔😢
Because there ignorant and stupid
Why should the family have to go a different way, you could say why didn't the mountain lion go a different way.
Bruh that mountain lion was going to kill a human regardless it was were humans are walking and on human tracks lol it was far from its habitat nigga was trespassing tf u mean
@@fitzy28101 Here's another person that would continue walking towards the lion too 👌
They were told there was a lion? And they kept walking? Didn't have to have the cat killed wtf.
Fr..ppl told them a lion was up ahead and they had kids but wanted to take a video to share 💀
Only the privileged ones keep walking in. Just like if some guy came running around the corner and told them there was a crazed.guy with a gun dont go..Hmmm honey I think we will be ok let's continue...jackasses..
That was my exact thought. And they were with their children 🤦
Probably the same people who attended the capital riot.
Yes they are totally stupid for continuing to walk in that direction.... But everything the cat did after warranted it's demise.... Something was wrong with it.... It had zero fear of humans or a extremely unsafe curiosity.... I don't believe in killing animals just to do it...
But wats the alternative 🤷🏽♂️ not killing it so it could kill someone else a couple days later????
"We just started being very cautious"... No you didn't. You chose to put your dogs and children in danger, then had to call for help resulting in the cat being killed. All because you couldn't be bothered to end a walk early. Then made a few bucks for the story, I'm assuming? Since the anchor said it's exclusive to CBS.
you should go walking on that trail if you live there.....which im sure you do since you ppl love ruining beautiful places
@@richardmulkey1772 the irony of this comment for sure went over your head lmao.
You’re also assuming that when she was warned she proceeded with her hike. How do you know she wasn’t finishing the hike and on her way back to her car? If that were the case, then it would make sense to proceed with caution. It wouldn’t make sense for her to turn around and walk in the opposite direction of her car with her toddler deeper in the woods. From what we know, there’s at least a 50/50 chance she was on her way back to her car when she was warned. Come on man, don’t be that one dude. Use your head.
Perhaps you are right, they are worthless people who think are entitled to even a mountain lion domain.
They disgust me
I think people like that should face serious fines
That mount lion didn’t need to be killed
I agree.It wasn't even acting aggressively.
Mountain Lion Lives Matter !
Mountain lion was Caucasian no ones going to protest for it.
Hoanglong Le shut up
@@tarimo3241 Truth hurts soy boy?
The dogs were even like, “nahhh, we out”
Wow , killed a innocent animal because he was just walking in his domain. 🤦🏻♂️
hell ? that's HUMANS !!
It may have been a mother with babies just trying to keep people away from her babies.
Riiight until he attacks one of your kids or pets then all your little cute shit turns into rage.. welcome to the real world.
Innocent animal? Bro that’s a wild animal and it will kill anything.
@@ladysmith7747 that human mother was trying to keep the lion from attacking HER babies....I guess you've never seen the results of a mountain lion attack.
The mountain lion was probably maintaining her ground because her cubs were nearby. The deputy should have told the Darwin family to go the other way, put out cones and notify Animal Control.
Right the deputy could have put the family inside his vehicle and waited for animal patrol or park rangers.
not worth that effort.
Yeah,I agree.Unfortunately for that poor mountain lion,it had an encounter with dumb & dumber.
You walk a trail where wild animals live... and "what's wrong with the lions?"
People need to get their heads exam for themselves first.
Tellin u man something is up with certain people fr
He really didnt have to shoot the mountain lion unless it attacked him. The fact he didnt scare it means he shoulda got everyone out of the area and requested backup and animal control
Don’t want to be to harsh on the cop, but who knows some of them are trigger happy😞😞😞
Yeah but that cat could have attacked in a flash and then shooting would not have been an easy option. It could have easily killed the entire family in literally a minute. Easily. At a zoo once, I pushed a huge tire hanging from a rope in a cage. The lion jumped upside down and with razor claws jumped on the back of the 200lb. tire and shredded it like it was it's toy. No man stands a chance.
RIP TO THE MOUNTAIN LION😢
The mountain lion might have been protecting its young and making sure that the human invaders were leaving its space where a den was nearby. Poor kitty!
I agree. So tired of entitlement and stupidity with some people
Yes,the mountain lion turned towards the woods at one point.Obviously she was just trying to make sure they left the area and her kittens were safe.Their idiotic choice to continue walking ,after being warned,caused that poor cat to die and leave kittens orphaned.
Karen killed the cat. Went it’s direction with a toddler and two dogs. That was food
The park ranger could have addressed this issue. A tranquilizer should have been used if necessary or even bear spray. Maybe they should just close that areas off to protect both humans and wild life. They can put up fencing around areas that people hike. I’ve been to location that have fencing. It works great for both. I’m so tired of hearing stories like this where wildlife gets killed when it’s not always necessary.
Hello Amber how are you doing today.
I believe it was police and not park ranger, if it was a park ranger than maybe they could tranq but even then u gotta guess the weight cause 2 little could be very dangerous and to much could b deadly, Bear spray would of been nice if they tried it and had some on hand, although when a mountain lion is that comfortable tracking down a human that’s not a good sign for the future
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@woozy607 Almost certainly wasn’t “tracking” them down. If this cat was “stalking” or “tracking” they wouldn’t know it.
If I'm going hiking and there is a fence along the route, I could've just gone for a walk at the park. Bring bear spray please so both party live to see another day.
And the Parents of the Year award goes to....
Poor kid's lucky if he lives to get past the stroller stage.
we'll see if the kid survives the family's Tide Pod binge-eating competition
Just another entitled couple that had kids to be like them. JUST GREAT.
Tip: If ever being stalked by a predator w little kids w you, put the kids onto the shoulders of the adult. Get them up and off ground level immediately it's their smallness and the way they move and sound that interests it. In this case it's probably the dogs that interested it. Winter is coming, predators have an instinct to bulk up pre-winter especially.
Or take the warning to heart and walk back to your car?
Ok... I really thought I heart wrong when they said someone warned them about a mountain lion and they decided to keep walking towards it... With their kids??!!!!
That poor mountain lion didn't have to die that day, although I'm curious if it has rabies or just keep approaching out of pure hunger. Cross that rainbow bridge... No more hunger or suffering.
A couple of decades ago in the hills nearby my home a mountain lion attacked a fully grown man riding a mountain bike and killed him then turned on two women mountain bikers who just happened to ride up the trail from the opposite direction. One hit scratched up pretty bad but got away. They notified the park rangers who tracked the lion back to its den where the man's remains were found about half a mile from where the man was attacked.
Walking towards a mountain lion after being warned, especially with small children is about as dumb as dumb gets.
I walk that trail every day with my dog. It’s right in my back yard , off my property. Bummer ! I was not at all happy they shot it .
Until it ate your dog then you would've wished they killed it
@@JoebsonOSRS
Should keep a eye out on your dog.
@@caminocutie1 you can watch your dog all you want what you gonna do when a full grown hungry mountain lion is after it
So sad for nature . Rip cat .
Right!
@@Harlem.Harlemz you fine btw
It was probably sweet and just saying hi
It would've attacked if it was looking for trouble
@@brandonpenna5626 no such thing
Imagine being on your territory and then they have to put you down because you are a threat to everyone else. I’m very impressed how we humans are.
On second thought🤔🤔🤔🤔
I’m not, some of us are truly worthless.
Like u
We have the capability of putting them down. It’s humans territory, they’re guests.
Let's see what you would do if a mountain lion were in your backyard and your toddler were playing nearby.
This is a matter of survival. It's like when the white people killed the native Americans...the mountain lion had 10 minutes or so to decide whether walk away or go for it. The help arrived and rest is history. The territory you're talking about only happens if a certain species could protect their home. Humans or certain species will have that command and conquer ability.
@@ronf.2029 they had every chance to live peacefully, they wiped out settlements while they slept. What happened to the natives is on their own ancestors, don’t bring a bow to a gun fight.
NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON A BIG CAT!
Huh
@@JohnWickkkk you can’t turn your back from those typa animals their sneaky af can come at you like a flash you see how the guy in the video walking backwards? That an example of what the lady comment says
Turning your back on a preditor. Dumb. It gives the preditor a prey instinct. They were warned, and kept going. Then called for help, leading to the cats demise. My thought is it may have had cubs in the area. No way of knowing for certain, but I would not have kept going once warned. The cat would have eventually gone on its way.
@@stonergee420 im that lady lol yes if you wanna get claws to the back try running
Ignorance killed the mountain lion.
Ginette May be so but that’s the same behavior they do when they are protecting cubs or food they buried close by.
Dumbasses killed the mountain lion
@@Ginette688 territorial is pretty normal
@@Ginette688 I have been hiking in the Rockies all my life. I can’t even count on my hands how many times I have been chased off a trail by not only mountain lions, but also bobcats believe it or not. This is completely normal behavior and cats will become territorial and offensive if they are trying to protect their cubs or a kill. And let’s not forget, they are Wildcats that are fairly large animals. Not all of them are afraid of humans and noises. Especially if they are accustomed two people and noises from nearby hikers campers etc. etc. these are not domestic cats. They are wild animals. Most are timid and will runoff. But not if they have a purpose. It is crystal clear from this video that the cat was just trying to Get the hikers to back off. Most likely because there were Cubs nearby.
How do you know it was due to ignorance? Who’s to say that that lady wasn’t on her way back to the car? If that was the case, then it would be logical to proceed with caution. It would not make sense to turn around and walk further away from their car deeper into the forest.
If that cougar had ACTUALLY been stalking them, they never would have seen it! It died needlessly!
When lions show no fear towards humans they need to be killed for the good of humanity
@@bellicose2037 that's what I said of your mom.
It’s the same as facing a shark when you go into open ocean...Your in their home! Yes their could of been something wrong with the mountain lion that it wasnt scared off but still it’s sad it had to be put down. It could of had its babies close by which is why it was stalking them, just making sure it’s babies stayed safe, they don’t know who you are or why your there.
Lol.
Where do you think we all came from?
We share this land. If they're going to try and kill us just for walking through their neighborhood. Screw them.
@@dangerous8333 true American
What if 🙄...what if no one did anything an next time the lion killed a woman with babies?
@@miguellavoie4373 maybe a woman in babies shouldn't be hiking in mountain lion territory? Just a thought you know
@@m74796 🏆🏆🎯💯
Once upon a time Humans went to the mountains, stalked naturally by mountain lion. The mountain lion then was killed for being naturally an predatory animal in its own environment. The mountain lion now is being studied for being hungry and naturally a predator. I can’t with these people!
These people are aggravating. They put their family in danger
they still continue after they were told mountain lion
Only the privileged ones keep walking in ...!
My thoughts exactly! And now a mountain lion lost it's life over it. Stupid people.
@@christineb.1 hey christine and as always walk right into danger and THEN CALL FOR HELP...! EVEN WORSE...LOL. IT'S LIKE SOMEONE COMES RUNNING UP TO THEM AMD TELLS THEM THERE IS A CRAZED GUN MAN SHOOTING UP THR PLACE AROUND THE CORNER AND THE HUSBAND LOOKS AT HIS WIFE AND SAYS .HHHHHMMM I THINK WE WILL BE OK WE WONT GET SHOT...!! BUT ONLY THE PRIVILEGED ONES ITS AMAZING...!!
It was likely after the dogs. Very sad ending.
The cat isn't in the humans way
The humans are in the cat way.
Prolly had Cubs around
@@ITRUTH213 probably but it would have been more aggressive if the cubs were close by
Stop it, y'all would be whining had the cat snatched the baby out of the stroller and you'd be calling for the cats head. Cat was in the humans way, cats aren't self aware, otherwise they'd be trying to communicate with us. Humans have domain over all creatures big or small. It's just the way the real world is. If you don't like it go feed yourself to a mountain lion and get out of my way. I wonder if animals in the wild complain when they have to put down a pesky predator. Damn you ppl make me sick.
Absolutely. Invaded its habitat and got it killed by an incompetent deputy
says who?
What a pathetic story
What a pathetic person
They were warned about the mountain lion but continued on with dogs and toddlers. Worst parents ever, they should be locked up for negligence.
They should have left, not keep walking in mountain lion direction.
Dude. Why didn't they leave? This park was set aside for wildlife, no?
Also, you should expect to see wildlife at the park. There can be snakes, coyotes, bears, eagles, javelinas. That's the best thing about a park. The animals have a right to live too.
If it took 10 minutes for a cop to show up, that's 10 minutes they could have used to leave.
I'm actually surprised it's not illegal to kill a cougar that hasn't bit anyone.
Shame on you for murdering that beautiful animal
Wait… so they need to study if there’s something wrong with the animal for doing what an animal does?
Makes sense.
"We just started being very cautious" as you kept walking your babies and dogs toward a LION. Everyone is not smart. You could have just turned back and the lion could still be alive having never met you. Something's wrong with humanity.
That mountain lion didn't go crazy, that mountain lion went mountain lion. Ya stepped into its path, whatchu think was gonna happen?.. smh.
It's path?
It doesn't own the wilderness.
Now some cubs have no mother
she was super unprepared she had no alpha dogs, no weapon, no chapstick hell tbe lady didnt even have lips lmaoool
“To see if there might be anything WRONG with the animal.”😂🤣😂🤣
How about what’s wrong with the people , of course your going to see mountain lions this is there home. What happened to animal control and a tranquilizer . I wish the officer had just drove to the family to take them to safety instead of killing the cat
There were thousand ways that the lion's life could have been saved.
Dayum a lion getting kill in its own home smh
Yup because, as a mother, when i hear that there is a preditor up ahead, I would naturally put my 2 young children in harms way instead of turning back.. steller parenting. But it's okay, she was cautiously approaching the area
So they kept going towards danger after being warned.
PLEASE don't depend on others for your safety. There are many people who have DIED waiting for the police to show up. These people are out in the country with a 3 YEAR OLD CHILD and their "weapons" are throwing rocks? Stupid people shouldn't be breeding. I'd be ashamed to show my face. A 12 year old with a .22 could do whatever he wanted to with this family.
and they got told a big kitty was on the same path yet they decide to march right in with a toddler . social media fame that is what this is
City slickers! SMH
If someone warned them of the mountain lion, why would they keep going with pets and a toddlers??? How damn dumb can you be. And not them studying the animal to see if something wrong with it, like what? Like humans casually carefree walking where they live?? Wild animals can’t have nothing to themselves cause humans are hunting and walking and riding bikes and creating roads in areas that really could be left alone it’s enough space to walk and hike in residential areas
Dude, chill out. Ever think of the possibility that they may have been on their way back to their car? If that was the case, then it wouldn’t make sense for them to turn around and walk further away from their car deeper into the forest. You just assumed that when she was warned she continued her hike. How do you know she wasn’t on our way back?
A mountain lion gets killed due to the irresponsible behavior of humans. Totally reprehensible, repulsive and sickening indeed.
They are not in our space….we are in theirs ! It’s really sad !
You mean to tell me that there was NO OTHER place for them to take their lil family stroll where there are NO mountain lions present?
Caution would have been to not continue.
Well humans have domain over all of the creatures, its just the way the real world is. You can't change that. If you don't like it go feed yourself to a local mountain lion and call it retribution for the mountain lion in this video. Otherwise get out of my way liberal weakling.
Hello Annie how are you doing today.
I'm Gobsmacked how naive those parents were 😱 A mountain lion can jump 16 to 20 feet high from a crouched position and a distance of over 40 feet while chasing prey. They were darned lucky they weren't attacked.
Biker: "Hey, there's a mountain lion ahead"
Mom: "my chance to go VIRAL!!!!!!"
YOU FORGOT THAT IS THEIR HOME. NOT YOURS, IF SOMEONE WARNS YOU ABOUT A MOUNTAIN LION AND YOU IGNORE IT....THEN DON'T BE SURPRISED IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU. LISTEN WHEN SOMEONE IS GIVING YOU A WARNING.
You're in there environment that's their home leave them alone that cop had no right to shoot him and everything with the cops is justified all they are is license killers
I can’t believe the dogs had like zero reaction.
No external reaction but their internal reaction was, "Damn, that's a big cat!".
Gotta walk with Bear spray or an Air Horn.
Family: We walked knowingly toward a cougar, which then scared us.
Deputy: I killed the cougar to save the sweet family.
News: Good deputy, poor family - after all, man has dominion.
Everyone else: Issue walking licenses for people in cougar country testing knowledge of wildlife. And thanks San Fran for simply removing the other cougar wandering downtown before this family could take their baby right to it. Sacramento is uneducated about such things.
Wow! And to think I have jogged that trail a million times sometimes at night aswell!
Not once did they think the Mountain Lion had family too? Really?
They would not have been in that situation if they had listened to the bike riders.
But no Kevin and Karen wanted to show their children the cute hungry mountain lion.
I hope it wasn’t a mama giving a warning. Didn’t look like she was attacking, she was warning. I hope they went and checked for babies!
SMH I’d be wondering why stranger’s walking through my home too…. Sadly these entitled Karen’s and kens made sure they got the animal killed so they can continue to walk through nature. 😑😑😑
Yep! Sad aint it! 8 have jogged that for years and if I encounter one I would bail! Not call the cops to have it killed!
The Lion may have been in distress and looking for help, animals do that.
100% the mountain lion just wanted a vet.
I had one of these cats stalk me and my cousin in silverwood lake. It was about 15 feet away. It was just looking at us . We simply just walked backwards and got up out of there..forsure the scariest moment of my life
Exactly you did the right thing by not turning your back on it cause when you do you're giving the wild animal the "OK" message to kill you since they rely on instinct.
Link? Or it didn’t happen
So are they gonna shoot every mountain lion they see now? Insane.
Looks and sounds like a Karen. Ignored the warning and then had the cat killed. Because they decided to be cautious. Like that means anything when it's a potential hungry cat roaming the bike trails.
For everyone hating on here for the killing of this animal. This is in the city limits and about 20 years ago on this exact same part of the trail, a woman jogging was killed by one and dragged up in a tree to be eaten. I know most of you around here don’t remember because you are Bay Area transplants that infiltrated our county.
You’re a new comer also. How long has your family been in the area? Not very long.
there was NO REASON to shoot the lion! all because of stupid humans.
No child endangerment charges? how dumb can you be? Now you killed a mountain lion in its own home because you didn’t want to listen! This infuriates me!
1) I'm surprised that the Dogs didn't rile-up barking to be more protective of their Owners. That would have tipped the scales!
The dogs are as dumb as the owners.
Rich dogs don’t deal with that they were looking for their owners to do something lol
The dogs were the smart ones and wanted to get the hell out of there.
The owners sure wasn’t trying to protect them!!!
So even though you were warned you kept walking? And cost the lion it's life.
People move into areas with wildlife and then complain about the wildlife smh.
Certain people do that
There's something spiritually wrong with the situation is something behind why the cat is approaching but you can also be assured that there's something behind all of this and why the cat was doing all that.
I'm sorry but that wasn't the right choice
If you see a mountain lion when you have your kids, pick them up immediately. We went to the zoo once and our toddlers were walking and the mountain lions jumped down and were pacing back and forth staring at the kids drooling. Once we picked them up they stopped. They see an easy meal so picking them up may detour them from following you. Hopefully. Luckily we had that divider between us. It definitely felt eerie and uncomfortable.
The lion didn't attacked the whole time. Probably have cubs nearby and wanted to protect its territory. Probably a scary moment for both mothers. Sad thing it is a part of life. We all want to protect our young ones
Not the human mother, she walked her kid into the path of the cougar after being warned!
Yea 100% had cubs near and wanted the people to leave IT'S home and ended up getting killed for that
So so sad..let's get the damn city people out of our parks..they have no clue..now one cat in the wilderness lost its life..now what about the Cubs she left behind....so so sad.
I think you’re right. It’s strange behavior for the cat. Your theory is a plausible explanation
People have no idea how brutal nature is that cat would have destroyed them dogs and possibly killed a person
Warned and still went ahead .... lol
probably a tame cat somebody released in the wild
I see no reason why the animal had to be shot
Because there was a high likelihood that it was going to eat a person! 👍
But hat officer could have brought along a tranquilizer gun. .
I guess we have to realise that humans aren't the only ones who inhabit this planet. It should never be a surprise.
this “mom” kept walking towards the cat with her 2 kids , i can’t with these parents and those people with the dogs, they should’ve had the mountain lion be free and let natural selection run it’s course with these people
Why Approach smh
Hey scrums you know why those privileged snowflakes kept going ...if a man came running up the street and told them there is a gun man shooting up the block....the husbands answer would be HMMM HONEY I THINK WE WILL BE OK LETS KEEP GOING...IDIOTS..
They killed the mountain lion? Such bs..those idiots shouldn’t have had their kids out there if they were warned about the mountain lion! This is so sad. Poor cat :(
These people are clueless!!
You could have just walked away and retreated, chances are there were cubs nearby that she was protecting. Ignorance led to the unnecessary killing of this cat.
You were told there is a mountain lion up ahead and you guys still went and with kids . Weird flex but okay
They approached the area AFTER they were told 🤦🏾♂️.
What's wrong with people? If someone tells me, "There's a fire on that side of hill", then I'm NOT going to WALK towards the FIRE. I'm going the opposite direction! Common sense is rare nowadays. They were told that a Mountain Lion was on the prowl & they headed in that direction... genius move.
