CU Boulder Bike News - July 2021

Last month’s trivia answer: If you encounter a mountain lion while biking/hiking, Colorado Parks and Wildlife provides the following recommendations:

• Do not turn your back to the lion as this can trigger their hunting instincts. 
• Stay calm and move slowly, but make sure to face the lion and stand upright.
• Do not approach the lion. Most mountain lions will try to avoid a confrontation.
• Stop or back away slowly (do not turn your back to the lion), if possible. 
• Appear as large as possible. If you are traveling with children, make sure to bring them close.
• If the lion attacks, fight back. This is not the ideal situation, of course, but if worse comes to worst, use all available resources to fend off the lion.
• Travel in groups and make noise to prevent encounters w/ mountain lions.
• Visit CPW for a more in-depth explanation.
