Thanks for the photos. Excerpts from the article:

"We weren’t on a trail or down in the woods we were on a sidewalk between the restaurant and hotel,"

"I heard them say right in front of me that they were not going to tell the other people at the lodge that there was an attack and the lion is still at large," says Rivers’ mom, Kristi Harris.

David Elkowitz with the Big Bend National Park tells CBS 7 this was actually the second attack of the day in the same area.

Can you say negligence on the part of the Park Service and whomever was at the lodge stating the attack wouldn't be reported?

Here's a mountain lion paw print from the Laguna Meadow Trail a couple of miles from the Chisos Mountain Lodge. Canine/coyote/dog tracks would have toenail indentions. In a lion track like this one the nails are retracted leaving no mark in what once was the wet or damp soil/mud of the trail.

Yesh, the rangers should have warned people about the lion and started evacuating people.
