gen. прийти к соглашению; подобраться вплотную к (кому-л., незаметно • I worked in the bush on Vancouver Island for decades and I still fish the rivers alone. I've had a few close encounters with cougars. Cougars are predators. They are looking for an easy meal. They don't take risks unless they are desperate. If you are older (less robust in your stride) or have small children or dogs with you, there is an increased risk from cougars. A cougar can close on you a lot faster than you expect. So, don't wait to the last minute to yell or use bear spray or bear bangers. Bear bangers work very well and no they are not a fire hazard in most conditions.
