'I'm gonna see if I can pet it': Man Encounters Wild Lynx Cub and Tries to Purrsuade It to Become Friends (Video)

One conclusion that we have come to over our time writing for ICanHasCheezburger is that some of us… really are crazy cat people. At least the most dedicated ones of us are. And the reason we have come to that conclusion was because we have come across one too many videos like this one - of people petting cats that they should definitely not be petting. 

And it's not even the video that's the problem. It's us. It's our reaction to it. Because when we see someone cuddling with a lion or someone reuniting with a cheetah or an itty bitty jaguar cub battling someone's shoe… we don't think, "wow, that's dangerous, these people should be careful." Instead, we think, "wow… how much we wish this could be us." And that's what we thought this time too. This encounter with this wild lynx cub could have gone much, much differently, we understand that, and still… wow, how much we wish this could have been us.
