Adam’s Colorado mountain lion hunt: dogs, ethics, and a brutal livestock kill
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, we were just talking about the mountain lion that we have in the lobby, and how insane that thing is. So Adam, you shot that mountain lion when?
- AGAdam Greentree
I think it was about six or seven years ago now.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you ate it, and I ate some of it. You sent some to me. It's really good, believe it or not, ladies and gentlemen.
- AGAdam Greentree
You wouldn't think so, but it's incredible. I-
- JRJoe Rogan
Everybody says it's like ... They, they, the way they describe it is like a sup- I think Rinella said this, a superior pork.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah. Yeah. It's like ... I, I think of it as a cross between venison and chicken. And then ... And I only did a quick on the barbecue, and I'm not a great cook, but it was that tender and that tasty.
- JRJoe Rogan
But the, the story behind the mountain lion's nuts. Like, that was a, like a murderous mountain lion-
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that-
- AGAdam Greentree
It was ... I felt a bit funny about it to start with, because like the dogs do all the hunting, right? The dogs smell it, dogs find it, they put it up in a tree, but the further I looked into it, I'm like, well, you need the tree 'cause you wanna sex it, and you wanna age it, you know? You wanna make sure it's a lion that's, you know, old, and it has to be a male to shoot it in Colorado, at least at the time you had to, anyway. So, it was actually the perfect way to hunt, but then seeing how destructive that individual lion was, at least, um, I was telling Cam about this when we got here, that it must've grabbed the cow, like a beef cow. It must've grabbed it on the neck. Um, and the cow couldn't move, you know, but it was still fully alive internally, and vocally it was still alive, and when we got there, the mountain lion was like eating it from its rear end-
- JRJoe Rogan
(exhales)
- AGAdam Greentree
And it'd been there for at least an hour or two, because there was quite a lot of meat that had been eaten out from the cow's ass.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- AGAdam Greentree
And, um- Kicking its hooves. Yeah, and it just ... But it ... The cow couldn't get up, so it was f- it was literally eating it while it was still alive-
- JRJoe Rogan
(exhales)
- AGAdam Greentree
And as the dogs were running down there, you could hear this cow off in the distance just like screaming, like mooing flat out.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- AGAdam Greentree
And you could tell something was wrong. The dogs got there. The lion ran off. Um, we end up calling the rancher in. The rancher come out, put the cow out of its misery. Still screaming on the ground right in front of me. I was ... Uh, hey, I was teared up, like, you know-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, God.
- AGAdam Greentree
Like, I don't like suffering, like the next person. Um, so it was a very horrible moment. So then it was like, n- now I'm into it. Like, now I'm into finding this lion and-
- JRJoe Rogan
Brothers. It's, it's like a werewolf's loose in your town.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know? Having a ... That ... How much did that cat weigh, by the way?
- AGAdam Greentree
I-
- JRJoe Rogan
By the way, as in weight.
- AGAdam Greentree
I, I held it up for size, and um, I could hold it for maybe 30 seconds, and I literally couldn't hold it up anymore, and I was trying to show the size of, you know, how big that lion was.
- JRJoe Rogan
It looks like it's at least 150 pounds, right?
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah. It's giant, so it's like- I'd say 170.
- JRJoe Rogan
170? That's what you think it would be-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah, I would think.
- 4:09 – 6:27
Predator-prey is happening everywhere: feral cats, ‘war’ in nature, and balance
- JRJoe Rogan
It's just fascinating that all these different creatures exist with us, 'cause we're so insulated for the most part, like most people are so insulated living in cities, traveling on buses and planes and cars, and never-
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... never seeing a thing like this in real life.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you realize, like at the same time while you're going to Starbucks and, you know, you're, you're picking out the new iPhone, th- there's a lion running full speed at a herd of zebras right now.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm. (laughs) Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, right now in the world-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... there's a lion full speed at the zebra, and it's gonna tackle it, and it's gonna grab it by its face, and all these animals exist to keep each other in check.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's the real beauty of nature. And when you really see it when ... We saw that ... We were out yesterday, Cam and I were, we were hunting for pigs, and we saw a feral cat-
- AGAdam Greentree
Oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
... make a pounce on a mouse.
- AGAdam Greentree
Oh, shit. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, we were in the perfect ... It was one of the coolest things.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause even though like, it's a kitty cat. Meow. Like a little, tiny kitty cat.
- AGAdam Greentree
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Little f- it was fluffy, too. It was kinda-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... cute. We watched a predator in the rare moment when you see him executing a kill. I mean, it was only a feral cat-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah, yeah. This is cool.
- JRJoe Rogan
... but it was still ... We saw, we saw his little butt wiggle. We saw that thing that they do-
- AGAdam Greentree
Getting excited.
- JRJoe Rogan
... where they get ding and then up in the air.
- AGAdam Greentree
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
And went-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, that is cool. It was so wild, which-
- AGAdam Greentree
And th- and tha- that's going on multiple places throughout o- on our planet right n- you know-
- 6:27 – 8:53
Why predator management exists: Colorado quotas and Japan’s bear crisis
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. That, uh... To, to Adam's point about his lion in Colorado. It's so managed, um, that, that, that animal actually probably could have been killed off, uh... Like, because it was killing livestock.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah, yeah.
- CHCameron Hanes
You know? But when you kill an a- a lion in Colorado, it's very detailed, very documented and tracked. It's like you can only take... Like, in the unit I was hunting lion, I didn't kill one, but you could only kill 35 in the year.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yep.
- CHCameron Hanes
And every time a lion comes in, they, they catalog it, check it, um, get it... You know, all the information in there, and then that's one of the 35. Once you reach the 35 quota, you're done.
- AGAdam Greentree
You're done. So, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, let's put this in perspective, because if that doesn't happen... And by the way, all that money goes back to the state, goes to game wardens. It helps everybody, helps conservation. If you don't have that, you know what you have? You have what's going on in Japan.
- AGAdam Greentree
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Where Japan is having massive brown bear attacks. So just last year, they had a kill, I think it was 1,000... It's at least 1,000. I think it was more than 1,000 bears last year.
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
And this year is projected to be even higher than last year. So the bears at the fucking military-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... has to go in and o- They're having a war on giant brown bears.
- CHCameron Hanes
That are killing, I don't know how many people already this year.
- JRJoe Rogan
A shit ton.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
A shit ton.
- AGAdam Greentree
They, they are-
- JRJoe Rogan
So when you put that into Perplexity, our sponsor, how many people have been killed in Japan by grizzly bears? Or, well, they're not grizzly bears, but they're essentially brown bears.
- AGAdam Greentree
They're, they're a type of brown bear, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're a brown bear. Record surge of brown bear attacks in 2025, with at least 13 fatalities and over 200 injuries. Holy fuck! Make- making it the deadliest year for bear attacks in recent history. Majority of fatal attacks have occurred in Ho- Hodok... How do you say that?
- AGAdam Greentree
Hokkaido.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hokkaido, Hokkaido, where brown bears are more prevalent, and the number of attacks has prompted emergency responses, including the deployment of military personnel in some regions. Dude, I've been hearing people in Montana and people in Wyoming that have been saying, "We're seeing more brown bears than ever before." Guys who are going on elk hunts and getting freaked out.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And like, they have to de-list these fucking things.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, they are totally fearless. They, they've never been hunted.
- AGAdam Greentree
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So they have no fear of humans. How many guys have you heard where the gun goes off and the bear shows up after the gun goes off-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- 8:53 – 11:27
Japan field story: stumbling into huge brown bear sign while bowhunting
- AGAdam Greentree
I flew into Hokai- kaido. Japan had a period where they would let foreigners hunt, and it had to be with a bow. And I was chasing seek- sika stags over there, and I had no idea they had a brown bear at all. (laughs) And, uh, I was going through this big reedy area, like, you know, the reeds are up above your head, and there was just a game trail going in there, like wh- that the deer had been using. And as I was going through there, I could see that it was, it was starting to open up a little bit more, like a flattened-out section, maybe like, uh, where the deer had been bedded. And I got in there, and there was a sika deer just like the rib cage all chewed out, and it was just a big muddy clearing, where this brown bear had got in there and just like rolled around with this carcass. But the prints in the mud were like that.
- CHCameron Hanes
Oh, my word.
- AGAdam Greentree
I had no i- Like, I had no idea there was even bears there. So I'm getting-
- JRJoe Rogan
Wait a minute. What year is this?
- AGAdam Greentree
Uh, it'd have to be 10 or 11 years ago now.
- JRJoe Rogan
But Google is still around, right?
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
You didn't check? You didn't go, "Hey, what's in the area before I even thought about it?"
- CHCameron Hanes
I didn't even wonder about it. I wouldn't thought about it.
- AGAdam Greentree
I started messaging the outfitter and being like, "Dude, there's bears here."
- JRJoe Rogan
Look at that bear.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah. And then he thu- he started telling me that the- it's some of the biggest brown bears there is.
- JRJoe Rogan
Bro, that bear fucked up that guy's hood. Look at this.
- AGAdam Greentree
Oh, yeah. That's a big, that's a big bear.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- AGAdam Greentree
But the police force, 'cause I believe there was an unarmed police force at the time, they had an issue with a bear where it had killed two hunters there, and he had to go in and shoot this bear. He had photos on a tractor, and I don't do the gruesome photos, but he's just flicking through his phone, and the next photo is a guy with his face missing from this brown bear attack. And another photo, the bear... When they, when he went in to shoot the bear, the bear was in a stream holding the guy down in the water, eating him in the water.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- AGAdam Greentree
And it like... So, yeah, pretty gruesome.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- AGAdam Greentree
So it was pretty full on. But up until that point, I never even knew there was a brown bear in Japan.
- CHCameron Hanes
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Bro, before you go someplace with a bow-
- AGAdam Greentree
It makes sense.
- JRJoe Rogan
... do a, do a cursory internet search.
- CHCameron Hanes
(laughs) Yeah.
- AGAdam Greentree
I'm from Australia, like come on.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, even if it's... You guys have the internet. Shut the fuck up.
- AGAdam Greentree
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
You were telling me some startling things going by.
- CHCameron Hanes
No, they're, they're way, they're way behind in Australia, though.
- 11:27 – 16:54
California mountain lions: depredation numbers, hidden kills, and pets as prey
- CHCameron Hanes
Another, another layer to that Japan story is, the reason why they have to deploy the military is 'cause all the hunters are aging out. So, there was hunters there.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah. Huh.
- CHCameron Hanes
But because hunting is kind of like this dying thing-
- AGAdam Greentree
Hmm.
- CHCameron Hanes
... for this next generation-
- AGAdam Greentree
Ah.
- CHCameron Hanes
... there's not enough hunters. So they have to get the military involved. Otherwise, it would be hunters like, you know, you going over there and... They've talked about, like...I mean, I know there's Americans who would volunteer to do it. But, that's another part of it is, um, this next generation just isn't hunting. I have another question. Jamie, put this into Perplexity, please. Um, how many mountain lions were killed with depredation tags in 2024 in California? 'Cause what I had read, o- on a forum, so it has to be correct. (laughs) Must be true.
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause those guys are all experts.
- CHCameron Hanes
Oh, yeah, they're dialed in.
- JRJoe Rogan
Uh, I had read that an equal number of mountain lions had been killed with depredation tags by like experts with dogs, like they bring them in, than if they gave the tags out.
- CHCameron Hanes
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, if they had given tags out and let people mountain lion hunt, you would have the exact same amount of mountain lions that they had to kill.
- CHCameron Hanes
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
And instead of that, you would have revenue.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. Money going-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Instead of paying. Instead of paying. Instead of the opposite.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Right, instead of paying.
- NANarrator
And the collection of the meat, obviously.
- JRJoe Rogan
All right. California's not yet published a full 2025 total, but the best available data as of July 2025 shows at least a 167 mountain lions reported taken under depredation permits in 2020, and 166 in 2022, with annual totals of over 100 in recent years. So, every year they have to kill- kill at least 100 mountain lions.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Probably quite a bit more. It looks like 67 more, 66 more.
- CHCameron Hanes
And I would say it's only went up since then.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, well, th- the thing is like they're doing nothing to curb the population.
- CHCameron Hanes
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
And this is, the thing is like people go, "Oh, it's okay. Let nature do its thing." No, it doesn't do its thing. It kills your dog. Okay?
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
One of the things they found out in San Francisco, in the Bay Area, was when they do shoot these mountain lions, they've done an analysis of their diet. It's 50% dogs and cats.
- CHCameron Hanes
Wow.
- JRJoe Rogan
50% of their diet is eating people's pets.
- 16:54 – 20:20

- CHCameron Hanes
I think they-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, it says... Oh, oh. It say, k- okay. It says of the permits, 52 were authorized to kill them. So it says lethal take. So it's authorized to kill them. And 20 were actually reported as lethally killed.
- CHCameron Hanes
So-
- JRJoe Rogan
So they're saying it's only 20.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
That seems cooky.
- CHCameron Hanes
So, but that is, that's for, uh, like a ranch owner to do the killing.
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay.
- CHCameron Hanes
So they, they say, "Hey, this lion's been killing my calves 480 times." And 222 of those they said, "Okay, go ahead and kill the lion."
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay. Right. So this is permits that were released rather than-
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
... the agency doing the depredation work.
- CHCameron Hanes
Right. Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay.
- CHCameron Hanes
So you, you would add this total to the other number we have.
- JRJoe Rogan
Right. Because the depredation thing too, you gotta think, it's ranchers. Right?
- CHCameron Hanes
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So these guys are all out in the middle of nowhere. A lot of the depredations though that they might be listing is what we were talking about with San Francisco, where they found that they're eating people's cats-
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... and dogs. So maybe they get depredations. It's not like... But you, you can't give it out to the fucking homeowner.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- NANarrator
No.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. Yeah, see-
- NANarrator
That, that would-
- JRJoe Rogan
So you only give those tags out to ranchers-
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
... it seems like.
- 20:20 – 32:59
Up-close lion reality: sneakiness, rare sightings, and the runner-chased video
- NANarrator
I've, I've seen maybe two in all the hunting that I've done, just naturally in the wild.
- CHCameron Hanes
Mm-hmm.
- NANarrator
And you would have seen more, but it's not a big number.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- NANarrator
They're out there, but they're just so sneaky, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, they're so fucking sneaky.
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
We saw one... I told you the story. We saw the one in Utah with Colton.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Mm-hmm.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah, a huge one.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like that one.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
He was like his big as yours. It was fucking terrifying. Inside of a car, 30 yards away, and I'm shitting my pants.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. (laughs)
- NANarrator
Not-
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm not even... (laughs)
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And we're armed.
- NANarrator
Yeah, right.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know? And we have bows, we have... (laughs) You know?
- CHCameron Hanes
So the, the difference between Oregon and California and Texas, you know, Texas being able to shoot them like coyotes is, that's politics, you know?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Mm-hmm.
- CHCameron Hanes
Of course, West Coast is liberal and different.
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, Utah changed it though. Utah has it now, like coyotes.
- CHCameron Hanes
Perfect.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- 32:59 – 49:33
Urban voting vs wilderness reality: dogs, baiting, and selecting the “right” animal
- JRJoe Rogan
I guarantee you're not out there as much as you are or you are. That's the difference between people that really understand what we're talking about, and people that are looking at this from this knee-jerk love and compassion for nature r- perspective. Like-
- AGAdam Greentree
Well, back to what Cam said. It's like, the- the majority of the votes are people that don't get in that environment.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- AGAdam Greentree
You know, and it's not just about hunting. That's for farmers anywhere, as well. There's people in the city that are making votes for people that live in the country, and the lifestyle is completely different.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they don't understand what they're talking about, especially the BC ban. "Look, we're gonna ban trophy hunting. Trophy hunting's bad."
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Now, but what about monster control?
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Isn't that good? I'm on fucking team people, okay?
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah. (laughs)
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
I love animals, but I am on team people. You know?
- AGAdam Greentree
Imagine if they knew how soft we were, they don't have to spit out hair.
- JRJoe Rogan
No. (laughs)
- AGAdam Greentree
(laughs) Yeah.
Like, the flesh is right here. It's soft. It's so easy to get into.
- JRJoe Rogan
Our stomach? Because they usually go in at the stomach, you know, or the abs.
- AGAdam Greentree
Oh, it's a soft bit.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's like our stomach, how soft does our-
- AGAdam Greentree
Straight for the organs. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, that's right. Right to the good stuff, you know? Yeah. Not good. And it's like-
- AGAdam Greentree
If they knew-
- JRJoe Rogan
Even-
- AGAdam Greentree
... not good.
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't think people ... Like, even a dog can turn into, like ... Uh, I killed a buck, you know, before we went on that last hunt. I killed a buck and, like, for the treat for the dog, you cut off the nuts, give them the nuts. So it's got hide on it, it's got the- the buck's nuts, basically.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Dog takes off, so they're just, like, ripping into it. It's like delicacy, right? That's just a normal dog.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, a lion who's born and bred to kill, I mean, that's just the level of what animals-
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- 49:33 – 1:08:17
The ‘fake world’ vs the wild: purpose, contentment, and voluntary suffering
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. Is- isn't it weird to think that, uh... I mean, most society doesn't know anything about the wild these days, you know what I mean?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. We're domesticated.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah. So it's... But even, like... I don't know. I, I always say that... And I mean, we talked about this, I'm pretty sure, 'cause I talk about it all the time. But, like, I always think that society, like, this regular life here is fake. It's like it's not even, not even real, it's not even how humans were designed to, to live and survive.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- CHCameron Hanes
Where the wild is actually where... that's how, that's what we're designed to do, live in the mountains or, or hunt and survive, things like that. And so the fake life, I don't know, it's just crazy to me to think about that-
- JRJoe Rogan
The fake life is what we think of as the real life.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah, is the real life.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- CHCameron Hanes
And it's not, it's not real. It's, like, what we're doing, yeah, it's just not, not real life.
- AGAdam Greentree
We're, we're, yeah. We're, we're made to live in a society that's not by mind or your design.
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- AGAdam Greentree
You know? And it's sort of like... And that, that's... I always feel out of it in society because I just feel like it's not for me. But it is, it's here and we got to live in it. I do like going to the rest of the world and getting a good injection. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- CHCameron Hanes
(laughs)
- AGAdam Greentree
So... But I just want to go when I want to go, right? (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, that's the s- that's the way to do it. Attack it from the outside.
- CHCameron Hanes
Yeah.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Go in, go to a nice restaurant, get back out to the country.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- CHCameron Hanes
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
And just fucking relax.
- AGAdam Greentree
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's better for people. You ever see that, um, sp- uh, the old days of Vice, when Vice used to do really cool stuff?
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
They had Vice Guide to Travel. And, uh, there's this one guy who lives in the Arctic Circle and this dude is... He's been there since the 1970s. He got a job up there and got permitted where he's, like, grandfathered in to allow to live in a small cabin up there, like the last guy there. He has, like, a permit on his door.
- AGAdam Greentree
Mm-hmm.
