More D Report post Posted March 15, 2016 I was yelling at the guy with the second pole. It seemed like he could not or would not put it on that rear leg. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4Falls Report post Posted March 15, 2016 Im with MoreD, the "heeler" seemed a bit unsure of this plan. The wildlife officer acted like it was just another day at the office. Cool video. I know that if I had walked up that mountain, saw the lion, and then was handed an aluminum pole and told to hook his feet. I would have been like.... "you want me to do what?"

nateNAU Report post Posted March 16, 2016 Cats are real easy to black out with a catch pole. About 10 seconds with the pole cinched down tight and they could have taken that trap off a sleeping cat. I'm really surprised the g&f guy messed around with it awake. Catch point to the back legs or head plus chain length of 5 feet or so is double the distance of those rinky dink catch poles. Very dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
