When he stumblec upon an active mountain lion den, he warned his crew to steer clear, successfully protecting the mother and her cubs for nearly a year However, the logging company eventually ran out of other trees to cut and ordered the crew to push into the restricted zone anyway. Within iust a week of the habitat destruction. the mother mountain ion completely vanished, leaving her tiny, helpless cub alone at the den to slowly starve. Refusing to just stand by and watch the baby suffer, the logger took matters into his own hands and began secretly leaving food out to keep the orphaned mountain lion alive. A photographer captured a deeply moving shot of the man kneeling right beside the wild cub, and the heartwarming image quickly went viral across the internet. Unfortunately, his emplovers didn't share the public's appreciation; they fired him just days later for "interfering with wildlife" Still, the heroic logger has absolutely no regrets, telling supporters: "I'd rather lose my job than watch a babv starve"
