“Young, newly independent cougars of 1 to 2 years of age, presumably having difficulty finding food for themselves account for the majority of cougar/human interactions. ”
一般地，只有年轻的，1至2岁的美洲狮因为捕猎食物困难才会出现在人类社区。好消息，看来，能碰上的基本是小犊子。
"If the cougar attacks, fight back aggressively. and try to stay on your feet. Cougars have been driven away by people who have fought back using anything within reach, including sticks, rocks, shovels, backpacks, and clothing --even your bare hands. Generally, if you are aggressive enough a cougar will flee, realizing it has made a mistake. "
一般地，美洲狮在人类坚定的反击之下都会退却。看来，这是一种扑食软弱动物的动物，当对手具有攻击性时，它会认为是自己选择错了进攻对象。
结论，一个壮年男子遇到致命攻击性美洲狮并且被吃掉的可能性，比得中2000万大奖的机会还要小。
