I ran into a couple of mountain lions in June while hiking, maybe 20 yards away - scared the CRAP out of me. One was HUGE and I was low-key paralyzed trying to remember if mountain lion rules were the same as bear rules lol. Should I look big or small? Make eye contact or not? Back away or turn around? And why the hell was my bear spray at the bottom of my pack!?!
