So I nearly ran into a cougar just moseying down the trail today... pretty unusual, but also it was a life goal of mine to see one, so it's a great day! My encounter was over quickly, as the cougar just walked into the bush. Others may have different experiences when encountering a mountain lion. I decided to look into the wisdom and medicine that cougar/mountain lion has to share, and share some ways to embody that in our lives. Again, all readings are from the Sams & Carson Medicine Cards.
I refer to a video from last summer of a trail runner being threatened by a cougar. The raw video can be found at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p25MgRZ9rJc&t=9s
Here's a link to an interview with another trail runner who killed a cougar that attacked him in Colorado: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fUZw6er0Eg
