I've never hunted anywhere but the US, Canada and Mexico(North America) so I have no real basis for comparison of hunting big cats else where in the world BUT for a real hard days hunt that culminates in taking a big cat I highly recommend hunting Mountain Lions from horse back with a pack of well trained dogs. I've done it several times in the Wind River Mountains in Wyoming and I can honestly say that I've yet to find anything that compares to it for open chase hunting. I've never thought it was all that dangerous because by the time we caught up with the Mountain Lion it was already tree'd or trapped on a ledge by the dogs, so the kill shot was an easy one to take with little or no excitement involved but the chase getting to that point was outstanding.

I've heard a few stories of guys wounding tree'd mountain lions and having them end up on the horse with them but I've never had it happen to me.
