Got this in an email. I've never seen it. Thought y'all would enjoy 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, but on this occasion a mountain lion decided that he wanted to stalk the dogs (you'll see the dogs in the background watching) Very, very bad decision. 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 heck 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 (that were stunned in silence), and 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.

I believe I saw this same thing, but with a different story. The one I came across was that the mule belonged to a hunting outfit, and after they shot a lion the mule would always go up to it and make sure it was dead and throw it around a bit.

Story I heard as well, notice them ain't collies in the back ground, they're hounds.

That sucker is most certainly alive in the 1st pic.
They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!

This is why we keep a mule with our herd of sheep. They are meaner than a mother in law on a holiday!

If you keep your hair short and your mouth shut, things tend to run a lot smoother.

The real story isn't even told by the pictures.
The mule actually ending up EATING the entire lion, and then pooped out a black panther.
Incredible.

Incredible. LOL. 'Bout 6 AM Friday I intend to poop out a black panther, or at least a bobcat.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.
