A skier in China was injured after she tried to take a selfie with a snow leopard. Don't try to get pictures with wild animals!

How many times do we have to warn you on Dave & Chuck The Freak? Just let it be! "It ain't worth it!" We're constantly talking about videos of people getting too close to wild animals and paying the price. It happens a lot at Yellowstone but it can happen anywhere! According to LAD Bible, it happened in Fuyn County in Northern China. Check out a video of the incident shared on X (formerly Twitter) below.

Snow Leopards aren't usually aggressive towards humans but that doesn't mean they won't ever attack! You don't want to be the case study.

Thankfully, a ski instructor was close by and was able to scare off the Snow Leopard by waving his poles at it. She was wearing a helmet which might have actually saved her from additional and more serious injuries. Good reason to always wear a helmet when you're out on the slopes.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
