Is that true? I've seen first hand the result of a cougar attack. The cougar stalked an adult male on a road bike and chased him down gnawing on him until a passing car made the cougar flee. He said the most terrifying thing was beforehand, hearing the clickity-clack from the cougar claws on asphalt getting closer, and closer, and closer until it jumped on his back.
That would be freaky, although I would think a road bike would be faster than a cougar no?...
I just made my self laugh at work because of this...
Spoiler!
If anyone who has kids watches mother goose club.. all i could think of was this...
clickity-clack clickity-clack what's that coming down the track? A cou-gar!

Likely triggered the prey response thinking the bike was a fleeing animal. But in general old and sick or young and haven't learnt how to hunt. Or attacks on children.

Perhaps our animals are just a bit more civilized?
For example, my dad caught a few bears playing golf down in Waterton over the weekend.
Thanks for sharing. I love golfing there, we see bears on the course almost everytime we play. That picture looks to be taken on the 13th hole that goes over a gully. We have often found a bear wandering around the green there.
Not Darwinism in this case. The person who did the stupid thing lived. The woman that died was trying to help the stupid person.
So Darwinism (a Darwin award really) is about removing yourself from the gene pool, not just dying stupidly. So the women that died wouldn't get a Darwin award because her daughter survived. Even if the daughter was killed she wouldn't get one either because she had a child.

Basically yes, if you have a child you can still get an award.
But! categories that are exluded due to being to common:
Quote:
Not a Darwin (but not safe either)
* Whizzing on an electric wire
* Smoking in an oxygen tent
* Being hit by a train or automobile
* Aerosol cans, etc., in the oven * Climbing into zoo cages
* Falling off precipice while posing or pissing
* Carbon monoxide poisoning
* Most autoerotic deaths
* all too common!
While this isn't necessarily the case here, as they technically climbed out of their own protective cage into the larger cage, it could be argued the key point is the same, thus no Darwin Award.
