The cat ambushed them, and the mule pictured tossed its rider and we nt 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. T he 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 mul e settled down. View Replies To: DogBarkTree Okay, I'll bite: Pictures have been doctored. Mule's ears not far enough back for a bloody fight in at least one of the pics. Dogs standing back and suffering the shame of being protected by a mule i nstead of joining the fun. Just another Dem trying to get credit for effective, bold action. View Replies To: Bommer Happy to see this posted again so I can save the pictures, I have told fo lks about it. I am impressed on a couple of levels, now if we could train them to be Bo rder Guards...

The cat apparently ambushed them, and the mule pictured tossed its rid er and went into attack (defense) mode, the horses scattered and shots w ere fired but no one was sure if they hit the cat or not. Unfortunately, the battle was decently long, and it wasn't until it was almost over th at 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 mul e settled down. The cat was still alive here and trying to fight back The mule stomped th e cat then pinned it to the ground and bit the heck out of the dead cat several more times. The cat was pretty much dead by now then mule picked up the cat again whi pped it into the air again then stomped the dead cat again for good meas ure! Click to enlarge Origins: We don't yet have any leads on when, where, or by whom these p ictures were taken, so we can't say anything definitive about what they depict. It's quite possible that, as often happens, the photographs are real, but someone has fabricated an inaccurate description to accompany them. For example, in the first picture the mountain lion appears to have a trap and/or chain fastened to one of its legs, and none of the photographs co nvincingly demonstrates that the big cat was alive at the time the pictu res were taken. It might be, therefore, that the mountain lion had alrea dy been caught and killed by other means, and this sequence of photograp hs simply shows the equine picking up its lifeless body. as p Urban Legends Reference Pages 1995-2005 by Barbara and David P Mikkelson This material may not be reproduced without permission. |
