Bull. We have had more deaths from mountain lions in the last 5 years,
than in the previous 100 years. Sort of like Sea Lions. No reason to be
a protected species. Overpopulated now, and dieing of starvation, etc.
The deer herds are being decimated my lions, as well as the Big Horn
sheep. When they were hunted, they were never in danger of being on the
Endangerd species list, and they were controlled in numbers and kept away
from man.

?? You're claiming that mountain lions are targeting kids? You're a fool.

Cats, any cat, will kill anything they can catch and overpower.
Sometime that is not even because they are hungry, just bored. A child
just looks like a raccoon or a lamb to them. It is moving and it is
small enough to kill.
You folks have problems with them attacking a jogger now and then too.

As for Loogie's question, when they could claim the whole country as
their territory, about the only thing that limited their population
was the available food supply and the amount of territory each cat
claimed. Behind cars, the biggest cause of death for our panthers is
being killed by another panther. I suppose if everyone would move
back east of the Sierras the cats could have California and fight it
out until they had a stabile population. Unfortunately people do
choose to live there, farm and raise livestock so they can't let
nature take its normal path.
I always think it is funny when city folks do get a bear or other big
predator (even as small as a coyote) wandering through their
neighborhood. Suddenly all of that "live and let live" stuff goes out
the window and they want the predator gone.
Dangerous wildlife is like wind turbines. Everyone likes them until
they have one in their back yard.

I'm pleased when I read that a "sport hunter" has become the prey of his
prey. The sad thing is that most "sport hunters" mostly shoot animals
that can't fight back effectively. Probably for a reason, eh?
It takes a really brave man to shoot deer, moose, sheep, antelope,
squirrels, rabbits, et cetera, and then hang its head on your wall.
