Ok.. so I know this has nothing to do with guard but... just... OMG! x_X;;;;
------
This may be a first.. A couple living in 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.
Very, very bad decision.
The man got off the mule with his rifle to shoot in the air and 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 hell 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 the lion, stomped on it, and held it to the ground by the throat.
The mule got down on his knees and bit hard all over the lion a couple of dozen times to make sure it was dead.
The mule whipped it into the air again, dropped it, and gave the lion a couple more stomps for good measure.
Then he walked back over to the couple, who stood in stunned silence.
The mule stood there ready to continue the ride... as if nothing had just happened.
Fortunately even though the hunter didn't get off a shot, his wife got off these 4.
