Great picture Search! Where did you find this?
Was at work about 4 or 5 months ago and it came in a forward to a supervisor. Today someone said there was a picture in the paper or somewhere of a mountain lion in a neighboring town dragging a deer by it's neck somewhere to eat it.
Seeing this thread made me think of that mountain lion which led to the cougar from long ago. Google turned up a picture.
"To make a long story short.." probably would have worked
I bet when that camera flashed the deer and the car bolted. I wonder if the cougar had the skill to stay on it's target. Either way, it doesn't look like the flash would affect their night vision too much as they are looking the other way. I'll bet 10 dollars one of them pissed themselves though.
