[QUOTE="fta0303, post: 3016026, member: 43503"] The well-known big cat J-hook. You're following him, probably nervous, on alert. Meanwhile, he's carefully gone left or right off the trail, come back toward you hidden in the brush, and waits. You catch him up, unaware that he's now behind you, watching from ambush. If a cougar, you're probably okay, unlees you're small. If a jaguar, you may be enjoying your last moments of life. By the time you've gotten a leopard to do this j-hook, he's likely a bit angry at you for disturbing his circles; he won't kill you, but he will strop his claws on your soft body before exiting at high speed, all done before you know it's happening. Don't know about tigers, but they are at times ambush hunters and may regard you as food, on a bad day. A lion will not bother to lure you in with this feline tactic, but will challenge you directly. You may have a few seconds of life left, more if you have a rifle and can shoot. Cats are amazing animals, from your housecat to the biggest ones, strong, silent, amazing fast and athletic. Something like a crocodile, physiologicaly capable of burning all available calories in an instant, a feline bomb ready to go off. Admirable and dangerous. [/QUOTE]
