Mule being Awesome
-
A couple from Montana were out riding on the range, he with his rifle and she (fortunately) with her camera. Their dogs always followed them, and on this occasion a Mountain Lion decided that he wanted to stalk the dogs. Very, very bad decision. (You'll see the dogs in the background watching.)
The hunter got off the mule with his rifle and decided to shoot in the air to scare away the lion, but before he could get off a shot the lion charged in and decided he wanted a piece of those dogs. With that, the mule took off and decided HE wanted a piece of that lion. That's when all hell broke loose for the lion. As the lion approached the dogs, the mule snatched him up by the tail and started whirling him around. Banging its head on the ground on every pass. Then he dropped it, stomped on it and held it to the ground by the throat. The mule then got down on his knees and bit the thing all over a couple of dozen times to make sure it was dead, then whipped it into the air again, walked back over to the couple (who were stunned in silence). He stood there ready to continue his ride as if nothing had just happened. Fortunately, even though the hunter didn't get off a shot, his wife got off these four pictures:

Shall we call Mythbusters?

Yeah, hate to be a party pooper, but the cat was already dead....at least according to Snopes. (Snopes is the equivalent of Mythbusters for internet stories)
Neat pictures though

Yeah, I'd imagine the cougar was already dead. A cougar would be just too quick for a mule. Still its a great story and the dogs in the background looking on really make a great picture.
Cougar
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CougarA capable stalk-and-ambush predator, the cougar pursues a wide variety of prey. Primary food sources include ungulates such as deer, elk, moose, and bighorn sheep, as well as domestic cattle, horses and sheep

What are you talking about?

The narrative text explaining what is happening in the photos. I was curious.

I posted what was sent to me. Sorry for not checking Snopes.

No worries! I'm never surprised that forwarded messages are often complete fabrications. Somewhere out there, there is a room full of people cranking out false stories for politics and everything else under the sun. I hope they get paid well, because I get a lot of their stuff! Snopes is your friend!

Seems kind of funny.
Don't believe anything, except of course Snopes -
