Summary
Security video from British Columbia shows farm owner Gina Moore rushing into a barn and driving off a cougar with a single kick as it mauled one of her four Nigerian dwarf goats.
Seconds earlier, the big cat had its mouth and forelegs wrapped around the screaming goat while other goats scattered through the barn.
Moore told Storyful adrenaline took over and she acted knowing the cougar could turn on her, saying she had to make the intervention count.
Her farm also keeps geese and cows, and she said predators have become a more frequent threat after a black bear killed her miniature horse last year.
Moore said bears and cougars have only recently begun hunting on her property, which she linked to development pushing wildlife out of natural habitat.
