"Death Metal"
I'll go with that, one of the times the panther picture caused me to flash back to I did immediately obtain a DEATH GRIP on a a 8 foot metal fence post and a tiny little flash light and I kept that grip as I slowly spun my way back to the house as the panther did a series of widdershins around me roughly 8 feet out of reach of the fence post.
Over the past 35 years I've had more than a few encounters with large cats and 2 or 3 bears and the advice to never EVER run or turn your back on a big cat and never EVER challenge or surprise a bear is very true.
I'd also add when you feel that cold chill run down your spine and/or your hair suddenly tries to stand on end PAY ATTENTION and while you may never know what caused that reaction there is ALWAYS a very good reason for your body sending that message.
