If I use my sherlock holmes skills, I could almost maybe deduce that he has at least 1 throwable object already in his hand. But I suppose throwing away his precious would be the same as dying. (or could just kick some rocks). But yea it's a tough ask, how do you get a rock without bending over or crouching and nps talks about it a little bit, so that's an ok response and result.
Funniest thing, if you look closely at the very beginning, the clueless kitten that lagging behind in the middle, runs towards the human almost to play, while its the back kitten that spotted the human that runs to tell the mom. Mountain lions have dumb kids and responsible kids just like us.
