A cougar is the same thing as a mountain lion?
Yep!
I spilled coffee all over myself one morning.
Got out of my camper, flicked the lights on and off for good measure to establish a path to my truck in the dark.
Something jumped out of a near by tree, and my brain quickly determined that it was not a squirrel
Don't know what it was, but when it hit the ground, it broke branches!
Safely in my truck, with the door locked, I realized, what was in my coffee cup was pretty much all over me.
Less than a 50 foot dash to change cloths, but thought surviving embarrassment at work was the best choice for the moment
