What are the odds of calling in a cougar with a mouse squeaker?

Not saying it can't be done.

I would think if a cougar could hear the mouse squeak he would come look. I have called in a bobcat just sucking on my knuckle. I had seen the cat run across the road. I stopped my pickup and stood by a tree and sucked on my knuckle making a mouse squeak. After about 5 minutes I decided I better get back on the job. I stepped one step ahead to look in the direction the cat had ran. The bobcat jumped up with in 8 feet of me and ran off. The mouse squeak/knuckle sucked on noise could be any small animal, so I think a cougar would come in.

Props to the guy for calling in the cat.  I'd have been just as excited as he was too, no doubt about it.  Not sure why he needs to be criticized by some of you though.

I really didn't see any of the comments as "critizicing" him.  :dunno:  They were just comments on how lucky he was in getting that cat when he didn't follow many of the normal procedures for calling in predators. I thought the guy was hilarious with how excited he was. Of course the guy in the video isn't reading this so even if he got criticism what's the big deal?

I always love it when someone does something successfully in life and then people told them how they did it wrong, even though they probably have not accomplished it themself.

Boy, oh boy, do I agree. Most people never ever will see a cougar and would sh!t themselves if they did. People always find something wrong with stuff like this. Can't criticize the guy, he's the one that got the cat. I had my gun on one 2 years ago. I was shaking so bad I couldn't of shot it if I wanted too, which I did !!!! I used to be on Primos Cabin Chat.You talk about a bunch of backasswards people. Criticized everything. :'(

Geez. I posted once, now I've got to say it again.... nobody criticized the guy. I think most of the comments were because people were amazed that he got the cat by doing everything "wrong."

I think people were just trying to point out that safety orange, movement, direct sun and a shiny gun are not ideal for predator hunting especially mountain lions.  Maybe the terrain or the brush kept him hidden from the cat, who knows. 

Still a cool video to me.  Called in to close range with hand calls, no decoys, less than ideal camouflage and taken with a shotgun.  How rad is that.  Just goes to show that you will never get anything sitting around looking at a computer, no matter how good your technique is.   :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

True but how many people do you know that wear orange while calling predators? Not only that, but he WAS sitting right in the open, and he WAS moving around a lot.
