Dogs Take on Mountain Lion in Crazy, Viral Idaho TikTok [Video]

It doesn't take much to go 'viral' these days-- there are cameras EVERYWHERE. If you don't intend to be filmed, odds are that you're on camera somewhere. If you want to capture something for yourself--it's easier than ever because we're all walking around with at least one camera in our pockets anymore.

A recent incident in the snowy mountains of Idaho was captured by a TikTok user and it's currently one of the most popular videos tagged with 'Idaho' on the popular social media platform.

Mountain Lion / Cougar ... versus a pack of hunting dogs? Who are you taking?

Let's take a look at the action caught on camera in the Idaho wilderness!

Where did that big cat come from!?

Something about these big cats can be so scary! They're big, fast, can climb (obviously, this one was in the top of a tall tree) and they swat with those paws!

This man out in the wilderness was lucky that he had his hunting dogs with him to keep the big cat away--who knows what could have happened!
