Police said 17 men, ages 21 to 28, were killed in a horrendous cougar attack early Sunday morning in Richmond’s Shockoe Slip. The matured cats appear to have migrated into the city from the suburbs, targeting dozens of attractive and mostly intoxicated young men.
Richmond Police Chief Bryan T. Norwood said the victims were seen earlier in the evening taunting the cougars with plates of raw deer meat, the scents of various musky colognes, and the display of numerous wild cat-calls that only made the felines more vicious.
“This was a senseless tragedy that was, unfortunately, something that could have been prevented with proper training on how to act when one comes face-to-face with a full-grown cat,” Norwood said. “Cougars, alcohol, and young men are a dangerous mix.”
Additionally, none of the victims heldsubdiv valid cougar-hunting licenses, he said.
Police said the attacks came from cougars of all colors, including the light tan-coated cougar whose partner left her anywhere from six months to five years ago, a species common to the Richmond metropolitan area.
In addition, sources claimed to see at least three black panthers, a hairless Asian puma, and what is being described as a rare blue-eyed Hispanic lynx, native to the southwestern United States and the Twin Hickory subdivision in Henrico County’s far West End.
Regardless of color, the extremely-territorial cougars prefer habitats with darker lighting - specifically, college bars - to hide signs of age from potential suitors. Cougars are known use their retractable claws and powerful jaws to drag prey into their four- to five-bedroom homes.
“I kept telling the guys to stop and just play dead, that cougars aren’t something you should mess with, but they kept telling me to quit being a ***** because cougars totally love to hang out,” said Scott Charlotte, who witnessed the jaws of a cougar lock onto friend Ed Vaughan’s neck, bite, and leave several critical bruises. “Once that happened I knew that I’d never see my friend again.”
“At least not until the next morning at Denny’s,” he added.
Though yesterday’s cougar attacks were the result of the provoking male species and the procurement of brightly-colored intoxicants that destabilize the cats and make them friskier than normal, experts say such assaults are fairly common nationwide.
Native to every country and city in the world, cougars typically move in packs of three or more and feed on a variety of prey, including including deer, cattle, and fraternity member. Averaging five feet, six inches in height, the stalk-and-ambush cougar generally targets mates 10 to 20 years younger, though older cougars may sometimes search for partners three to five decades their junior.
The reproductive cycle of a cougar runs 52 weekends a year.

...look, I don't quite understand what's going on here. There's some terminology I'm not familiar with. But even I can tell that 17 men were not fatally bruised by wild-cats only to recover the next morning.
Edit: Ah, right. UD FTW. :lol:

Opps. I thought this was a real story the way it was shown. Theres so many fake news sites these days it gets just a little bit anoying.lol

This isn't just fake news. It's satire, social commentary, that kind of thing. Ya see, a 'cougar' isn't just a mountain lion, it's also a slang term for an older woman who still goes after much younger men in a predatory fashion. Read the story again, knowing that fact, and it becomes incredibly funny.

seriously i just don't get the joke at all guys i'm sorry. Also I never knew cougar was a slang term for older woman. Thats a first for me.
I also don't find real life senseless killings to be funny either. But thats just me.

Ya but dude, nobody was actually killed! It's just about how agressive some older 'cougar' type women can be about going after good-looking men who aren't especially interested.

ROFL. You do realize that it's a joke right?
Don't feel bad though; it took me a second read to realize, "Oh they're talking cougars as in Sex and the City-sluttier older women not RAWR 'I eat you nao'."

There are a lot of cougars in Scottsdale and Paradise Valley in Arizona. The people there are rich as sin. And when I say rich I mean they wipe their ***es with wads of 100s and a bunch own Black Cards. And there's a lot of young people that got rich off of the internet and trust fund babies gallore. It's prime hunting territory up there.

...attractive and mostly intoxicated young men.
What I thought: crazy hot woman buying sex and killing the hostages.
...the cougars with plates of raw deer meat.
What I got: the wrong kind of meet/meat was used.
“Cougars, alcohol, and young men are a dangerous mix.”
I'll say, those cougars charged me extra...
