(turn on the sound)
Believe it or not, this was most likely a message for the other male lion, who was in this very spot, five hours earlier, and then returned only twenty minutes after this. Twenty minutes! More to come later. Stay tuned.
That's the most aggressive meow I've ever heard.
Well a Puma IS the LARGEST of the Small cats.
somebody needs a voice coach
It's not aggressive. It's announcement call. It basically means "Puma here. Any other pumas, please reply."
The Most Aggressive Cat noise is actually between both the Lion 🦁 and Tiger 🐯 oh and the Black Panther.
@@nickmitsialisI’m gonna go with smallest of the large cats.
Those sounds went from adorable to terrifying REAL quick.
They did didn't they? lol
Stupid comment.
He was practicing.
mew...meo...mEAW...MEAWH... *MEEEAWWHH!!!* 🐈
I shit myself
I love how she looks right into the camera like “Hey, you getting this shot? This is for you!”
Butt shot.
It’s like a broken Lion.
He is male read description
Heard this once while walking in deep woods. A huge whitetail buck then went past us at full throttle, in the opposite direction, snorting like a locomotive. We stood in place for about 5 minutes trying to settle ourselves. A once in a lifetime experience for us.
Incredible. Love the way you describe it too "snorting like a locomotive". That instantly brings the life and death struggle to life in my mind.
@@gps9715agreed! Added a lot of imagery to the story.
A long time ago I heard that scream just once, bushwacking. Very scary sound. As someone once said, if you've spent any time in the mountains, you may never have seen a cougar but you can be pretty sure a cougar has seen you.
Deer do snort when distressed 🤣
@@Morbius-Tension Yeah. Not at the petting zoo 😂.
0:30 -- *Puma :* "Are you getting this on film, Bob? Because I am NOT doing this again just because you forgot to hit 'record'!"
😂😂😂
People trying to get clout on Tik Tok be like: How about we just insert a recording of this guy’s voice into the background of a panorama of a random forest in the Midwest. I bet they won’t ever notice!
Definitely earned her bowl of friskies that day
Ha! This made me laugh my butt off. Have a good day friend.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
In the summer of 2001, my late wife and I were hiking in deep woods the mountains in Alberta when we heard this sound ahead of us. It was well out of sight, but not that far away either. We knew instantly there was only one animal it could have been. That was scary. We slowly turned back toward the trailhead, looking frequently over our shoulder.
What about the fake catholic president?
Big whoop
Great story.
Hey people here don't know that out there...the sound is so friggen unexpected chills rip up and down your spine .
I heard it in 68 as a kid. In a duck boat goin up a narrow slough when the tide was out. Vulnerable as hell
Next time pull this video up on your phone and play it loud so it thinks another cat is calling back, you coward.
@@ETAisNOWI could kick its ass. I once challenged a Tiger to a cage match and submitted it in :30 secs.
To anyone thinking of camping in the wilderness, it honestly pays dividends to watch videos like this one. Whenever it's after dark and you and your squad are gathered around the fire and you hear some shit like this out in the trees, you get to be the gigachad who goes, "It's a mountain lion. Sounds like it's trying to communicate. We stay close to the campsite and keep this fire going, we'll be fine."
Things that make you say... "pack up the tent, camping trip is over".
The musculature looks crazy powerful relative to the overall body size.
Their body weight is 60 to 70% muscle fibers. They are the most athletic creatures on the planet with explosive speed, jumping and climbing abilities.
Yeah they're incredibly powerful creatures
This Is the reason why The UNAM has chosen the Cougar as their Sports Emblem AND Symbol 👍❤ AND It comes since the American Football of 1940 when a trainer has nicknamed the cougars to his team because his playera usted yo he Strong,Fierce,Agile And Smartest as this feline 🤩
@@poorthing he got lucky it was only 35-40lbs compared to the 150-200lb adult.
@@poorthing just adding further facts to add context to the story you provided. That said, incredible is subjective. An example would be to me, it’s incredible it took a personal attack from an animal to gain a healthy respect and awareness of their physical capabilities, pet or wild. Good on you for giving your critter a long and peaceful life.
The cat is going through a mental list of things to do today and 'scream randomly' is the next on the list.
It's kind of like my day.
Gotta get it out before you take it out on the coworkers.
😂😂😂
250 pounds of pure spring loaded muscle I had my encounter in 2001 above lake Castaic on my mountain bike he was crossing the road I stopped it stopped and we just stared at each other for about 2 minutes I was shaking but it moved up the hill thru the brush and I hauled ass back to my truck I never went back alone or unarmed again I have never felt so small and helpless mutch Respect to big cats now !
Lolololol good story.
nice story but pumas don't get that big save for an absolute freak monster that occurs in 1 of a million specimens
@@hazardeur Maybe he saw a 200 + lber, but when the adrenaline kicks in for survival I think it convinces us that the threat is 2 x bigger.
Is it safe bed to assume all back roads are susceptible to wild life ? I like biking in country roads but I’m always afraid
A few years ago when the Ojai Valley fire broke out, we actually had a mountain lion under our house for two days. When you’re up close to them, they are huge. The cat left on its own. I felt honored
Gut-wrenching yet beautiful sound to the ears
You need cat guts! ≽ܫ≼
I played this and my housecat freaked out!
Mine too. Now she's looking at me as if i want to kill her!
Lol
Same here. My cat came running from the other room and started searching for the "cat" making that sounds. lol
Mi gato también salió corriendo😅
My cat was asleep and he heard this and jumped up and hair on his back was standing up,, I would love to know what the puma said!
My son was asleep in the tent with me as we were camping out down by the river in our home town, around 12 midnight, a pack of dogs from a distance were barking loudly, Then we, the dogs and I, heard this wonderful big Cat screaming,,not far from us,,And just like magic, the dogs shut up and everything went totally silent,,❤ i love cats,,
I hate cats .😂😂😂😂😂
My cat trying to wake me up at 0300.😂😂
What a glorious close-up, Robert. These big cats aren't having the easiest time of it here in southern California; it's awesome to see such a healthy one. Thank you. 🐾💫
It’s been so nice to be able to document healthy lions in a healthy habitat.
@Sims 3 Forever Dude
False, you're just parroting what you have heard from some false narrative.
@Sims3ForeverDudelook bro, they're called mountain lions here. Should people try to change words in your local jargon?
@Sims3ForeverDude Your 'scientific' semantics defy the obvious realities. The realities are that they are cats that are the physical size of adult humans. That makes them physically large cats. And even though they may be physically inferior to African lions, tigers and most jaguars, they are still physically larger than leopards - the smallest of the pantheras. If a puma had you pinned to the ground with your neck in his jaws, would you still be thinking that this is a 'lesser cat' at that moment?
@@Sims3ForeverDude"Big cats" is not a scientific term, it's a layman's term. Pantherinae and Felidae are scientific terms. This cat is big, and it's also a cat. It's a big cat, period.
Amazing capture. That kitty is not skipping out on any Venison steaks. Without your trail cams, you could almost never see this in real life. Wildlife really wants nothing to do with humans.
Exactly. And if I did see a puma or bear in 'real life', I wonder how long I'd pause to appreciate it. 🐾💫
Thank you for saying that. I agree, the trail cameras really give us a glimpse into the wild world, and seeing animals acting so natural, without any humans nearby to disturb them.
@@humpermonkey RIP P 22
@@mortalclown3812except running us what would get you killed.
Watch this puma attack a man! th-cam.com/video/lFETolfFgGE/w-d-xo.html
I've only ever heard this in deep woods camping/hiking videos where, from a distance, it sounds like the screams of a distressed child. Very haunting. It's cool to see and hear it from the source's side for a change. Thanks for sharing.
I think thats the mating call...heard it and then seen a cougar 10 min later then heard it again up the hill.
It was a great experience.
He is beautiful, but oh that voice!!
that's a female conducting a mating call, when male Puma's here that they move in for a mating opportunity
@@twostop6895 probably means camera man should move on fairly quickly lmao
Size is O voice is ○ 😃🤣😂
@@twostop6895 we q I’ll ll
If you hear it, you need to get the hell out of dodge like yesterday!🤣
when you are one of the apex predators in the area you are entitled to make a little noise at times.
There is a very popular 1400 acre State Park that people will take their dogs to on the edge of Portland, Oregon. I go there every Sunday morning. I have heard this sound numerous times while we were walking our dogs there and thought it was some some kind of bird. Now I know better and will be keeping a much closer look around my surroundings if I hear it again.
There’s a lot of things that could tear me apart in nature but I love nature so much!
My aunt heard one of these at night and thought it was a woman screaming. It shook her so much she doesn't even like to talk about it 😂
He is absolutely beautiful 😍 Awesome close up!!
Thank you !

No, this is a male. Please read my caption, and stay tuned for the complete story, where I was fortunate enough to document this lion and another male lion, passing by this spot, only 20 minutes apart.
@@humpermonkey thanks for the clarification, P 22 news this morning was as bad as it gets, that wildlife crossing can't get finished fast enough, end of an era
@@twostop6895 You are correct in that females do make these calls to signal for a mate, but males respond by making the very same calls. Eventually, they will find each other.
@@twostop6895 Yes, and many more wildlife crossings need to be constructed in busy, densely populated urban areas.
A very gorgeous cougar, so resplendent and beautiful. Love him, he is magnificent. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍🙌😍😘🥰
I was hiking in Trabuco once and I heard a mountain lion cry similar to this one. It was faint and at a distance, but I cut that hike short. The way this noise just sets of every alarm in your body is incredible.
friend of mine leading a group into the jungle in the Amazon heard two pumas (most likely mother and cub). He said it was frightening as they were unarmed.
What an intriguing title! The puma, also known as a mountain lion or cougar, is such a fascinating animal. Their vocalizations can be quite intense, and it's incredible how they use them to communicate in the wild. The puma's strength and agility are also remarkable, making it one of the most respected predators in its habitat. It's always exciting to learn more about these majestic creatures and their behaviors in the natural world. 🐾🌲✨
I live in Indiana and I heard this sound one night. The animal was walking around my yard. I looked out windows and couldn’t see it. I thought about going outside in order to identify it but it scared me enough that I am glad I didn’t. I few years later my neighbor caught several pictures of a mountain lion on their trail cam. I also found out the cats have been spotted for several years in the area. I am really glad I didn’t go outside.
Do you imagine being alone, in the wilds, and, all of a sudden, you hear this scary sound in the air?🥶🥶
nah, you hear this you know your gucci. avg Male (human) weighs 100lbs more than this thing, and while claws hurt, gouging out its eyes hurts a fair bit more.
@@kikoredogthere's no way u think u could win against a puma
what about wolf/coyote howls
@@revvv1221 We have hands, elbows, feet, knees, our body weight, teeth. The hand can be used to punch, hammer fist, palm or gouge eyes like the OP said. You have to know how to use it all together, 99% chance of getting hurt, 1% of being able to grapple it. We can also strangle while using knees.
@@1truthbegettingtold275 pumas can leap 45 feet horizontally
I live in San Clemente and the property runs up against Pendleton. One time on the hillside, I was walking my dog and saw a mountain lion just relaxing on the hill above me. I immediately took my dog inside. I watched the lion on the hillside kicking back in the afternoon sun until he got up and walked away.
Puma Messi from Penza sounds pretty similar when his human dad Sasha leaves him for more than 3 minutes, bless his loving gentle soul... ♥️🏡🎎⚽🐹🥑🐆🌄
Messi is definitely is a daddy's boy!
The best!
Yes ! I watch Messi and his dad Sasha every day ! Messi can be clingy when Sasha is out of his sight, he calls out for his dad . Sleeps in dads bed, has his own in house "den" . Messi wants for nothing. A lucky puma he is. 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻
Yeah I love his squawky meow. :)
Finally!!! I backpack around SoCal doing 3-7 day solo trips and on a week long adventure in a secret spot on Palomar mountain this sound/scream woke me wide awake. It was at 1am these 3 screams went off probably 20yds from my tent. Freaked me out for 10-15sec and then back to sleep I went 😂
@@poorthing 6 months later your ⭐️ has become a white dwarf planet but you could still get a participation 🏆 if you keep trying 😘
These cats are my number one favorite. After seeing you have more of them on your channel, I HAD to subscribe. Thx so much for sharing incredible captures that I will never see in person.
What a beautiful creature 😍
Thank you you have the best videos. I've watched 4x. About to watch for 5X. The sound is intriguingly beautiful. Thank you thank you. Fascinating. 🕊️🙋♀️💜
Right Brain: "Run you fool 💀"
Left Brain: "Kitty Kitty 😍"
Such a beautiful cat! Magnificent!
That wasn't what I expected but, that puma looks like it could tear anyone a new one in seconds... Freaking awesome 👍
Absolute magnificent and powerful creature. People have to respect this legendary animal ‘s space, peace and environment. It’s so unfortunate when one has to be killed.
Big cats should never be killed. If a human ventures in the woods, their territory, they should NOT be allowed to be arm. Otherwise, don't go in THEIR environment w/ the intention that if you do see a bear, A puma or whatever species you either scare him off or run up a tree. Killing is NOT an option. Animal life , any wildlife is PRECIOUS. Humans are the predators in this world.
I have heard these kitties hold that scream, it turns into a guttural roar. And at the end of the roar it just doesn't sound like a mountain lion.
She seems to be calling her cubs. Love this
Me and 3 of my buddy's were rowing a duck boat up a slough at abandoned Red's cabin, in a huge Salt marsh on the Puget Sound. 'Ebey island'.
The Puma scream was within 50 yards of us, hidden by the devils club and wild rose thorny brush. Big ole Firs hanging over us had us searching the trees for cougar as we poled our boat back out the narrow slough. Ya, what a sound. Scary like in horror show.
So when I heard this Utube video i got chills, as back then.
We kept it quiet to protect the Puma...beaver trapping was common then in the area...I did it.
I bet that puma didn't have all his toes.
A supercool event for me and my buds.
August 1968
Thank you for sharing. Beautiful cat ❤
I have a cat that likes to get out through any opening…and when he does…I give him some time then I’ll go outside and call to him…when I yell his name, he will respond in a very similar meow. He ONLY does it when he’s outside alone and he’s trying to find his way back. Cats are all so similar. Very cool.
You know what they say, a cats are cats no matter the size.
Mesmerizing. Beautiful.
Very educational. Thank you. Most impressive skills it took to gather such amazing footage. Well done.
Heard that one night in my woods when I took my Lab out. She beat me back to the house.
It’s fascinating to see animals recognize by instinct, they’re outranked.
What a magnificent animal.
What an amazing call… I will remember. Thank you for this video❤😊😊😊
Wow! Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful animal. It's coloring is amazing. I just figure it would have more of a growl than a shriek.❤
Open plains, growl travels. In bush it doesn’t so a shriek is far more effective.
It truly is .
Shriek....bone chilling & unworldly
They'll growl and hiss much like a normal house cat would. Just sneak up on one and scare it you'll see what I mean
I love mountain lions so much!🧡😺👍
Amazing Capture. Remarkable job.
Oh wow. So that's who made those sounds when I lived near the woods in BC! All those years I thought I only had one encounter with the elusive Mountain Lion and that's when I heard it growling at me while I was hiking. It's a bit surreal now being across the continent and hearing it on youtube...and making the connection after all those years. :-) Thanks for the vid!
I used to hear this sound in my woods in Indiana. I always imagined it was a cat of some kind but just figured it was a bobcat. I'm still not sure. The woods around here a thick and people are few so a big cat could live here undetected pretty easily
bobcats scream as well
I heard this at Brown County State Park in April 1977. I didn't know what it was. To tell you the truth I thought it was a bird. This was just at dawn by the earthen dam at that lake way back inside the park.
@@mirrorblue100 I know a guy who was walking a trail in Brown County Park with his German shepherd about ten years ago and a timber rattlesnake bit his dog in the face. I wouldn't have thought those snakes lived in Indiana but apparently they do. I suppose the same thing could be said of big predatory cats. There's plenty of wooded areas for a nocturnal animal to go undetected
I have seen rattlers around Lake Monroe. Give them a wide berth.@@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973
Fantastic work my friend! Great captures! Carry on! Jasonbear
Thank you my friend!
Cats are amazing and magnificent creatures.
Awesome. Most beautiful creature on the planet.
Omg look at that cute primordial pouch 😻
Beautiful animal. More trustful than many in the workplace!!
Explain your statement? How can you assess this animal to be trustworthy just from a short video of it screaming? Was it a trustworthy scream and where do you work that would make a mountain lion’s trustworthiness relevant?
Your comment is confusing to me.
@@user-me3er7lm1othis man must get assaulted at the workplace 😂
@@user-me3er7lm1o some people think cartoons and disney movies are real
Wow, it really does sound like a woman or a child screaming for help! Thank you for filming that, that’s loves a lot of mysteries, and a lot of these videos that I watch😊
These are one of my most favorite of the large cats. They are the largest that can purr and meow. Beautiful!♥️♥️🐾❤❤
I lived in Napa, CA. up a canyon that had very few houses, mostly woods like in this video. I would hear some strange sounds at night, one of which was exactly like this Puma screaming. I could never figure out what it was, now I know! Another sound we heard at night was very odd and didn't know what is was until I saw a video on "What the Fox says"
thanks for this video

three weeks ago i was in the backyard with my dog. I watched this video the week prior suddenly i heard a sound at my fence. It was 8pm or so, dark. "Oh look Maggie, time to go in the house."
I have about 40 game cams up and I've seen her and her two cubs 4 times over 3 nights. A creek runs through our ranch up here so the critters do to.
Wow❤❤ Thanks for sharing. What a magnificent animal.
Beautiful footage.
I remember looking up at stars in Carmel Valley and hearing this sound and at time, having no clue what it was!! I ran inside my house SO fast😂😂
omg thank you for sharing this! They are such majestic creatures. No canine lives solitary, only felines, and the largest land predator is a Tiger...
* You forgot the Polar Bear.
@@charlessmith4242 True. And the largest polar bear ever known weighed more than a ton and when standing upright, was just over 11 feet tall. That one was a real monster.
Polar bear is the largest
Foxes and coyotes are often solitary, although not to the degree as many felines
@@guzman3223 * Coyotes are pack animals like the wolf. Ever hear of a Lobo wolf? These wolves are usually male wolves that have been kicked out of the pack, and are looking to establish their own territory or have been replaced by a new pack leader.
Sweet and lovable "Meow"❤❤😊😊
simply AMAZING capture.
I remember the first time I heard a Mtn lion scream while we were out deer/hog hunting in California. I legit thought it was a lady screaming until my dad said, no, that’s a Mtn lion. I lived in California for most of my growing up years and hunted my whole life, and had never seen one. But hearing it and not seeing it was literally bone chilling. Then a few years ago, my family was out hunting and a Mtn lion was stalking a guy walking down a valley to flush out any possible deer. Luckily his hunting partners were watching him as he was coming down the Mtn, and noticed he was being being stalked, and only about 30 yards above him. His friends, although sketchy, shot in his direction to kill it before it was able to get him. I have always wanted to actually see one, just never in that sort of circumstance. Amazing creatures though.
All wild felines seem to be among the most elusive of creatures. I have spent most of my 66 years in the rural areas of Western Massachusetts. Over the years have seen many black bear, deer, moose and many other smaller forms of wildlife. But even though the bobcat population is considered to be relatively large in pretty much every state, i have only seen one in the wild. I would wager that both you and i have been seen hundreds of times by wild cats over the years of spending time in the woods.
Ya, I never saw one. Heard one close and bone chilling is the correct term. I've seen fishers, marten, black bear, and possibly a wolverine...which shocked me, but never a cougar. Western Washington near mount St Helens
@@tonyprice2256 I’ve seen quite a few wild bobcats. Very cool animals as well. Actually was out shooting squirrels with my daughter, brother and dad, and a bobcat came out of the tree line and ran and snagged a squirrel that my brother had just shot off of a fence post about 30 yards from the cat, then immediately ran back into the trees. Was so crazy to witness. Super cool. I live on our family cattle ranch in Montana now, and our rancher neighbor about 3 miles away has seen a few mountain lions on his property. So they’re definitely around here. I still want to see one, but also don’t want to risk our cattle either. Kind of a catch 22. Haha
@@zacharyelam5377 Very cool story! Thanks for sharing!
Wrong thing got 🔫 Trespassers 👎
They are such beautiful animals 🥰
WOW !! Awesome !! And good to know !! Thank U !!
I was camping on a logging road out in the sticks around Kennedy Meadows Ca and one night I heard that, I got out of my bag so fast, gun in hand because it was the most blood curdling sounds I ever heard! I will never forget that!
0:01 ' is everyone ready?'
Scared as hell if I was hiking and heard that.
Hikers are often fooled by them thinking it's a woman in distress so they go off the trail and normally end up getting lost
I WAS hiking and off in the thick brush about 50 yards away I heard this. It wasn't as loud as this mountain lion is sounding, but I immediately knew what it was.
The hair on the back of my neck was standing up.
I fortunately was right next to my car, and I quickly got inside, with windows just cracked.
I didn't hear it again.
❤❤❤❤ beautiful!!!!!
Beautiful 👍
As deadly as they are, to me they resemble domestic cats more so than the other bigger cats do.
That's because domestic cats, pumas, and most are both from the subfamily Felinae (sometimes referred to as the "small cat"). The "Big Cats" are from the subfamily Pantherinae.
Pumas/cougars/panthers/mountain lions are giant cats, just not part of the family officially called “big cats”. Therefore they’re closer to lynxes and bobcats than they are to tigers and jaguars.
There are a lot of them here in Brazil and they used to go the cities.
very beautiful animal
Sounds like a anxiety ridden cat trying to scream but suffering from laryngitis.
This is definitely the Mike Tyson of large cats.
Back in 1974 I knew a guy named "Catdaddy." He hunted the big cats without a permit, eventually going to prison for a few years. When he got out he fell right back into bad habits. He would hang out on the ridges with real old school NVG he stole from the army and take these whenever he could. One night, a cat found him first and snuck up from behind. He ended up falling in love with it and they moved into a cave together. Several man-cat children were the result of this union. Last I heard he was working the railroad in '98.
Had me in the first half 😂
RIP P 22
Reminded me of the old Lincoln-Mercury ads in the 70s. They used a Cougar for the ads.
I found your channel because I was cross-referenceing a puma sound from England I watched the video of a camper who had been setting trail cams and he took molds of a big cats paws and they were confirmed bye experts to be a big cat then in the early hours he recorded the same sound has this I checked it out myself bye matching the sounds on your channel every year we get loads of sightings of big cats but this is the first time I have heard one makeing this sound incredible
Big kitty :)
Looks terrifying but makes kawai noises😂
I'm glad to find another creature that makes the same sounds as I do in the morning. I do this to claim my territory. Its also better than a coffee at self stimulating ✨🌈🍀
Beautiful animal.
Why is he screaming? Telling other cougars his territory?
I think that’s what’s going on in this particular clip. A few weeks earlier, this same male lion, was in front of this camera, caterwauling, while trying to reach out to a nearby female lion. This time though, I think this was more about being territorial, considering there was a different male lion here, only 20 minutes after this.
These cats are the Apex Predators.
Felix con color is in a class of its own. They're capable of taking down an elk, as I have seen a it happen.
I just don't see how they can move about very silently, like a ghost!
The north American Indians called these cats : noshdootska and translated into English as The Ghosts of the Mountains. These cats can make various noises from a bird chirping to a full blown screaming lady with her hair on fire 🔥!
They struggle against a young male hiker
A lady screaming is anything but terrifying
Love that you mentioned elk, another cute and dangerous mammal with an equally ominous-sounding cry.
@@user-nl3xw4gg7m an elk would destroy this dumb weak cat
@@mahfoudseraf5995are you an imbecile? If they don't have a gun a cat like this would rip a person to shreds. You think a person has a chance of punching and kicking a full grown cougar to death?
Look at beautiful nature 🤩❤
Sounds more like a high-pitched roar to me, not a scream
Great photography!
Love Anna respect these beautiful big cats.

Such beautiful animals and so powerful, but reserved.
