Mountain Lion at a Water Hole

I captured a couple of clips of a mountain lion, perhaps the mother from the trio that we saw recently, at a water hole. First, she drank, and then she licked her giant paw, before sauntering away from the water.

Here she is on a trail near the water hole.

And here is the video of her at the water hole. I hope that you enjoy the short video, either here or at Youtube.

    As that mountain lion is walking away from the water, it appears that she is limping...perhaps why she was licking her paw...?

      I noticed that too. I hoped it was just something very minor... I'll be checking cams again soon so maybe I'll find out something more!

    Not quite as relaxed as the bears. Can't believe the clarity of the sound.

    Everyone gets thirsty, and kitties are big on clean paws.

    With all the heat around, we bet that water was refreshing. Thanks for sharing the video.

    That must be what Moxie and Della sound like when they drink, but only if my ear was right next to their bowl! Really special video - thanks for sharing :)

    I love that you can hear her lapping away too - she's a noisy drinker! :)
