The Mighty Atom: A Man Who Stopped a Bullet with His Skull
Mountain Lions in Colorado
Colorado mountain lions are some of the most formidable predators in North America, with a population ranging from 3,000 to 7,000. These majestic cats are also known as cougars or pumas and are the largest cat species in the Western Hemisphere. With their stealth and speed, mountain lions can easily take down prey larger than themselves.
Although human encounters are rare, they happen, and attacks may increase as populations expand into their territory. Mountain lions are apex predators, and their powerful bite can easily break necks, open veins, or puncture skulls with their two-inch-long canine teeth.
