The fact that they are sneaky and you probably wouldn't even see the lion before it attacked is not a pleasant thought. I remember on a deer hunting trip I went on by myself I hiked into my camp up a game trail by headlamp as it was after dark. I set up camp right off the side of the trail and went to sleep. When I woke up in the morning I looked at the trail right out side my tent and there were some big cat tracks right down the middle of it, and when I looked down the trail in the direction I had come from I saw the tracks over the top of my own, meaning sometime in the night a cat had walked 5 feet from me in my tent. Gave me a bit of the chills and I did not sleep near as good the next night. Mountain Lions scare me in the woods more than Bears I think.
