Do not crouch, bend or stoop. Your perceived size acts as a factor of intimidation to the attacking animal. Even raising an arm or arms increases the perception of size. (Animals do not recognize the symbol of surrender which is a social and cultural skill.) If a platform of any type is available use it to increase the perception of your own size. Do not take your eyes off of the attacker. ( A sign of submission.) Do not turn your back to the attacker. (A sign of submission.) Do not attempt to run from the attacker. (A sign of submission. It also places your calf muscles in a vulnerable location and they will be essential to carry you to safety after this encounter.)
You are dealing with an over-sized Pussy Cat even if it is a Cougar. Felines do not attack hikers, birdwatchers or campers unless they are (A) rabid, (B) injured and starving or (C) startled and placed on the defensive (protecting their recent kill or their litter).
Your soft abdominal tissue, neck and throat are your most vulnerable areas and require your protection. When first encountered:
1. Face your attacker.
2. Raise your walking stick above shoulder height to enhance your perception of size. No walking stick? Then you must be hunter. Put three rounds into the varmint, preserve the carcass for examination and notify Fish and Wildlife.
3. Not a hunter but still not toting a walking stick? OK, not very smart. But we shall proceed. The non-dominant arm is used to protect your vital organs from attack and if essential to use as a piece of bait or distraction like a Matadors Cape. (See #5.)
4. At the moment of attack visualise kicking a 50 yard field goal to win the Super Bowl and kick that critter's head through the goal posts. The Heavy Duty $300 hiking boots will surely rattle his cage if you catch him in the face, throat, chest or soft underbelly. Even those ratty sneakers you sometimes wear can do some serious damage. If you hadn't forgotten you Walking Stick, a couple of good whacks should have sent it scrambling for the woods.
5. Back to the non-dominant arm. Most Bobcats and few Cougars have room in their mouth to insert a fist or an arm, but go for it and keep on going. While they are dying from the lack of oxygen you can try using your nonexistent walking stick or the Swiss Army knife you left at home to finish them off.
Attacks by wild animals are extremely rare.
Attacks by healthy wild animals are almost nonexistent.
