The Mountain Lion is one of those animals that I would love to see in nature (from a safe distance of course... kind of like a great-white shark in the ocean:) They are super elusive, yet ever-present. I've come across dozens of torn-apart deer carcasses that sent shivers down my spine, yet somehow, in all of my years hiking in Tahoe and Colorado, I've yet to see one in person. And the more I think about it, the more I'm OK with that... it's fun to at least imagine what one might look like bounding across the fields... super fast, super powerful... king of the mountain.
