Earlier this year, a mountain lion was hit by a car near CT English School and another hit and killed by a car in Capitola near the Shadowbrook Restaurant. The Department of Fish and Game shot and killed a mountain lion near Pinto Lake Park after it killed a Chihuahua this winter.

Our younger son, who lives less than a mile away as a crow flies or cougar stalks, was awakened this past Saturday morning by the horses kept near his home.
It was about 4 in the morning, and no one ever hears anything from the horses until the morning sun hits their area.
Then he and several neighbors heard a shrill noise and the horses went into a full panic.
There is a large flock of wild turkeys in his area, and the kitty kat was probably after a low fat turkey breakfast. Another wild turkey flock near us has been basically hunted out by critters. The flock was well over 2 dozen birds last summer. Now it is down to one very paranoid/skitzy young tom.
