Man Survives After Being Chased By Wild Cougar For 6 Minutes, He Encountered While Jogging

In a terrifying viral video shared by a man, a cougar is seen following him for no less than 6 minutes, as he slowly attempts to step-back while facing the wild animal.

The encounter apparently took place while he had gone for a hike in the wild only to come face to face with the aggressive animal, who was apparently being protective due to the presence of her babies around.

Kyle Burgess from Utah was running in Slate Canyon on Saturday, when he came face to face with a deadly encounter and lived to tell the tale – along with a video footage of the same.



The spine-chilling encounter has now become internationally viral, featuring the 26 year old making a ‘close escape’ from a possible fatal outcome.
