Takes some guts to pull this off safely. Good thing the cat didn’t turn on them! :o

My mom’s 10 lb cat tore me up pretty bad more than once. Can’t imagine the damage a 200 lb cat could do. :shock:

I didn’t listen to the audio closely but did anybody have a gun ready?

I didn’t hear anyone say anything about a gun... they clearly knew what they were doing, but I’m still kind of wondering what the plan was if the cat didn’t run away lol

Reminds me of a time when my buddy threw a 4’ shark in the boat... he had no plan and we almost had to bail out.

10 years ago I did a float trip in Idaho with a retired Idaho DNR biologist. He used to ride the backcountry on horse, they would tree cougars and tranquilize them. Just before the cougars would pass out and fall, a biologist would climb the tree and lower the cat down with a rope. They would then weigh, measure and collar the cats. Sounded kind of exciting and crazy to me :lol:
