    I would say unarmed unprepared combat I could do a coyote. I would be super fucked up but I think I could take one.

      I heard of a grandma taking a bobcat once, so maybe that?

      The biggest problem is that most animals will never fight to the death. I could take multiple coyotes if I just need to scare them off. I could take a bear or mountain lion if all I need to do is not die.

      Checkmate liberals! 😁

      Their bites aren’t as bad as you might think. They can fuck you up, but they rely on pretty quick attacks, so the risk is more in repeated strikes(from what we’ve seen with the limited coyote attacks that happen).

      Don’t recommend going for a straight-on brawl, but if you can get behind one, you might have a chance. Bonus points, they’re naturally pretty disinclined to fight a human unless given no other options, so you might be able to slip behind at a point?
