This hunter showed extraordinary composure as he came face-to-face with a mountain lion he accidentally trapped while trying to catch coyotes.
The trapper's nerve was put to the test as the furious big cat hissed and clawed at him when its paw was clamped by mistake in Utah, US.
Remarkable footage shows the mountain lion lying on the ground when the man realises he has trapped it by mistake.
He carefully approaches the predator with a noose to restrain the cat but it immediately attempts to launch an attack.
The beast claws wildly at him but the hunter remains calm and avoids an extremely dangerous encounter.
