I live with a cougar. She’s pretty easy to live with, just don’t piss her off. As far as a bobcat or yote? I’ve killed a dog with my hands. And I’ve seen a guy that a bobcat hit during turkey season. He was calling, and the cat just came around the tree and lit into him. It left as soon as it realized he wasn’t a turkey, but he still got a ton of stitches. I will kill either one that comes at me, no question, but dear God I hope it’s a coyote.
