I do that everywhere!!!
In my country, it's not unusual to flip the lights on the alfalfa at night, to shag the deer / elk out, and see 5 to 7 cats on a kill. Triplet Cubs are common ( plenty of food), and the young females hang with ma for a couple years. Old males are solitary, but not always. Last year in deer season, neighbors hunters got into a herd " cats running everywhere". Only one they killed was a big male. It's not all in the books.I need to see a picture of this. That is Fing insane.
I have never heard the like.......In the part of oregon I'm from (above crown point) cats have been stalking and attempting to attack road bicyclists for some time.
I will ask a friend of mine of some pics from his trail cam, because, in recent years, due to restrictions on using dogs for wildcat hunting, there are more cats than food on larch mtn, and some cats have taken to hunting in packs.
He has pics of as many as 7 together, which is terrifying. My mother sees them off her back porch nightly, more in recent weeks than before.
Edited for punctuation. Punctuation still likely incorrect.
I've seen the photos and video as well as the story that somebody I know went to his back porch in this area... and momma kitty bolted from under the porch. Kitten kitty was on the porch earlier that morning. This is within the last three weeks.

Well Damn. That is terrifying.In my country, it's not unusual to flip the lights on the alfalfa at night, to shag the deer / elk out, and see 5 to 7 cats on a kill.

Spandex is only authorized for female use and then only for approved females. That is all.
I wear spandex on my road bikes and baggier clothes on my mountain bikes. I have ridden my MTB in the same area as the cougar attack in North Bend. This is one of the reasons why a lightweight .357 is always in the handlebar bag of any bicycle that I am riding: anything from animal attack, to attempted robbery and theft of my bike, to Cletus and Billy Bob thinking it is funny to throw a beer bottle at me from the F-150.
Yea and if they keep this up it won't be just animals they have to worry about - a co-worker told me about he and his wife recently hiking and almost got hit by some cyclists hauling azz around a corner on a trail.Yah, I get tired of these road warrior cyclists hogging the back roads and making it unsafe to pass,

Yea - and it wasn't just my co worker I heard it from but others as well. I certainly not am not a fan of new rules or regs but maybe something along the lines of of a vehicle cannot use the trail then it should include bicycles as well.Way too dangerous, in my view.

I wear spandex when I do road biking since it has pads for my rear end so I can ride for miles in comfort. I carry my FNX-9 when I ride and I use a Pistol Wear holster. All of my shorts are black and I wear a bright lime green shirt for visibility. Also have two super bright flashing tail lights and two white lights. Both headlights flash and if I have the the bright light on (not flashing) I have a smaller light that I set for flashing,
I will not carry a striker fired pistol around my waist.

A man after my own heart: I am wearing something fluorescent and lighted any time I am on two wheels. Back when I was working the Medic One unit and taking care of bicyclists/motorcyclists that had been run over, you could count on the driver of the car saying 'I never saw them'. I now try to stack the odds in my favor by improving my visibility.
