A cougar attack I can see, but for it to chase down and kill the second person has to be very rare...

He ran and became prey. Natural fight or flight response on the part of the cougar. Hard to believe two adults in North Bend were both unarmed.
Lots of yuppies recreate in the Snoqualmie/North Bend area

Did I say that?

I'm just saying lots of people recreate in the North Bend area. It's not just the North Bend locals. PMan made it sound like he thinks most in the N Bend area would be armed, I'd actually say it's the opposite these days.

That is specifically what this state needs to remember, it needs experienced hounds and experienced hound hunters to deal with problem animals.  :twocents:

Something like this they could have used a police helicopter with flir, that's how they got some cats in California that attacked people.  But in California it's a lot more open scrub and less tree canopy so maybe dogs  :dunno:

Prey instinct, same reason you never run from an aggressive dog, instinct takes over and you become prey.  Coupled with predators that no longer have a reason to fear humans.. 

Release the hounds, hunt them hard, not only will it reduce overall numbers, but the species will begin to fear man again and not be as likely to even approach people at all, let alone attack.

I heard there were multiple helicopters flying. Not sure if that was specifically to find the guy or both.

I learned my lesson, I was stalked by a cougar for 3/4 mile or more with nothing more than a big stick.
