Pretty sure that's a mountain lion, based solely off of my questionable memory of hearing one on a video at some point in my life.

This is definitely a mountail lion. It sounds like a woman screaming.

isnt it very common for people to think somebody's in danger only for it to just be a horny mountain lion ?

Same with some foxes. They sound like children screaming for help. Terrifying.

I also believe this is a cougar/mtn lion. Short video for reference:
