Today I found a real treat in my email. Here is the email and some excellent shots of a beautiful mountain lion who makes himself right at home at this Casper Mountain property. What’s unusual about this Mountain lion is that, as a species,  mountain lions like to remain elusive and are hard to pin down. This one doesn’t seem shy at all. 

email:

A few weeks ago our friends in Casper, WY mentioned that they had seen lion tracks in the snow on their deck behind the house.  They live on Casper Mountain just south of, and over looking Casper.  Then a few days ago they mentioned that one of their neighbors across the road had seen a lion in the driveway in front of their house.  About an hour ago they sent the pictures below.  The last picture is behind their house where I think they first saw the tracks.  This is one pretty good sized cat.  His apparent lack of fear or respect for people makes for an uncomfortable feeling when you go outside in the middle of the day.  He appears to be in good condition.

Mountain Lions are quite common in Wyoming expecially in the Yellowstone area.

Update: The story featured with these pictures from the  registercitizen.com
is incorrect by stating that they ‘phoned’ me on Friday. I have received no phone calls as stated in the article. Though I do believe that mountain lions can be roaming the Connecticut mountains (have paws will travel) these pictures have been taken in Wyoming. Thank You!

Mountain Lions are primary active in the morning and evening hours and have been known to kill pets..
