Did you hear this story ?
It is simply amazing.
A hiker in Northern California was brutally attacked by a mountain lion and his 65 year old wife fought off the mountain lion with a log and a ball point pen. In doing so she most certainly saved his life !
She claims she is not a hero by any means just fighting for her husband, and fighting together.
Their 50th anniversary is in a couple weeks, I'm sure the celebration will be even more special.

It is amazing what feats of strength and courage we have when we are faced with such a fearful situation. Preparedness is also important when hiking in a wooded area. Wild animals call these areas their home. Humans are the intruders.

I think after so many years she would certainly like to fight for her husband. I would fight for mine.

Oh my gosh, I hadn't heard about the mountain lion attacking anyone. Sure happy to know that this story has a good ending. The couple has a very good story to tell their grandkids on how they survived the mountain lion attack now. Wowsers!
