And if you want to protect yourself and you don't have a can of bear spray you should have a hose and hose them down from a distance. I cannot believe the grainy tree huggers in this state. That's what those old ladies should have had when the Cougars attacked is a hose to hose them down. Absolutely ridiculous.

Also if one does attack don’t play dead, fight like your life depends on it. More great advice.

And of course if it attacks your dog, let it, this is a good time to get away.

Living with wolves sounds so peaceful.
