Got this off another site seems pretty real and crazy at the same time
It was 5 years ago that it was posted
How gnarly is this!! It almost seems to unreal to be true.
Check out the dogs in 3 & 4, too scared to get near it.
Anyway, here's the story that goes with it.
"These pics came from a guy in AZ. Yes, the mule killed the mountain lion. The lion had been stalking them for the better part of the morning, on the way out to a hunt. They were pretty sure it was after one of the dogs. The cat ambushed them, and the mule pictured tossed its rider and went into attack (defense) mode, the horses scattered and shots were fired but no one was sure if they hit the cat or not. Unfortunately, it wasn't until it was almost over that one of the guys started snapping pics. The mule finally stomped the cougar to death after biting and throwing it around like a rag doll. The dogs wouldn't even come close until the mule settled down.
