Mountain Lion Vs Deer In Alpine CA

There's been more sightings in East county San Diego over the last 6 months then I've heard about over the last 6 years. Seems like there's a post at least every week from somebody's security camera. As a kid they were almost an urban legend but I suspect they were there all along we just didn't have the cameras.

You should see all the talk on the “nextdoor” app for my hood. All the city yuppies that moved during covid are losing their minds over all the mt lions in our area. 
 

and if i effin hear that effin retard cliche “this is just another reminder we are invading their space” again im gonna smack the douche. Humans didnt evolve from cities. We have every right to live in the mtns desert and forest. A two year old cat kills a chicken in the yard of a 50 year old house….the cat is the invader

In some big cities the animals do violent things inside the city limits.

They are called peaceful protests.

Mt lions; much like humans are animals. And as such, ALWAYS take the path of least resistance (easiest), when safe. Now you have all these city yuppies from chula vista and la mesa moving to alpine and my town to play yellowstone or the walking dead, and have these chicken buffets setup in their yards and are absolutely dumbstruck that a mt lion bobcat coyote or raccoon would come in their yard for easy pickins. “Must have been a rough winter” no. Water and game are everywhere. Its just easier to catch a caged chicken than a wild deer. 
 

the worst thing you can do is get govt involved. They ABSOLUTELY WILL KILL THIS CAT. There are federal hunters next door to my shop. Its what they do for a living. 
 

fwiw, the sighting and the location of the houses in the picture are easily 1/2 mile apart. Pretty creative journalism to claim it was “near homes” its a pretty sparsely populated area.

again eff u lyin news media

We have Bobcats / Raccoons / Deer / Coyotes / a bunch of wildlife because of the lake and the cities pinching them in. The Game Warden Patrick said, you see the Black Panther, Shoot Him! Don't shoot anything else. He said there is a Black Panther running around these parts. Got my Ruger 1022 with scope waiting for that guy to come visit my future chickens. Peace

If you need to shoot it, don’t torture it with a .22. :biggrin:

 
Karen Do-gooder “yes Mr. Gamewarden I swear I just saw a dead black panther at Mr. Cheff’s house”.

My money says a 22 is perfect. Let it croak somewhere else so it is someone else’s problem.

Game Warden is a good dude. Travis. Young guy. Has all of N TX to cover. Asked us to be his eyes and ears. Gave me his phone number in case something stupid happens in our back yard. And please shoot the black panther! Peace
