You never know what a cougar is gonna do ;)

In the first half of this episode we talk about some of the encroaching luxurious resorts surrounding popular national parks and some of the ways people are looking to experience national parks without leaving the comfort of the own homes and Netflix binges.

If you really want to experience the true nature of national parks without glamping or without electricity, we compiled a few crazy hikes to isolated campsites for those inclined (literally and figuratively).

In the second half of this episode we talk about the important steps you need to take to have a shot at surviving a deadly animal attack.  While deaths from many of these animals are rare, it is good to know how to protect yourself if you ever come face to face with one of these animals.
