Camera captures mountain lion kittens feasting

A remote camera captured a mountain lion and her kittens feasting

Los Angeles: A mountain lion and her kittens having a late-night snack, were recorded via a remote camera in a Southern California wilderness park.

More than 350 high-quality images were snapped as the three cats fed on a mule deer over two nights in Malibu Creek State Park last week, reported The Los Angeles Times.

Biologist, Jeff Sikich with the National Park Service said, ‘the cameras were set up to check on the male and female kittens, P-30 and P-28, who biologists haven't seen since they were tagged when they were a few weeks old.

“The kittens are now 10 months old and are healthy enough.” highlighted Sikich.

The park service has captured and collared more than 30 cougars in the Santa Monica Mountains during a study started in 2002.
