Feline and Nature Friday - A Caterwauling Mountain Lion

You might remember that a female mountain lion was caterwauling under a big pine tree for days on end in my previous lion post. In the following days, she continued her loud vocalizing, sending all sorts of crazy sounds emanating throughout the forest. She visited the same spot over and over again. My guess is that she had a big meal cached nearby and was stopping to call on her way to and from it.
Today's video will share this female's behavior as she broadcast her presence. I am overjoyed to have captured this footage - it is so rare to see a lion behaving so naturally.

I made a video of the travels of this magnificent feline. Be sure to keep your sound on so that you can hear her voice.

  9. Music to my ears...she is simply Gorgeous. I love how she shakes her foot of snow. Angel Madi did that when she stuck her foot in her water fountain.
