Mt. Lion visits Jerome
The Arizona Republic had an article today about a mtn. lion in Jerome thats been creating quite a fuss. So far house cats are on the lions menu (Jerome does not have a vagrancy problem) and the local cops can't do anything unless the lion changes it menu and the game and fish dept won't do anything untill the lion paws beef. I would image this may put a damper on Halloween.

I heard about this on the news. The lion has even been seen napping under porches. So far it has not been aggressive towards humans, just lunching on pet kitties. Actually, I think they should tranquilize and move the cat before it does challenge ( or attack ) someone. When that happens you know they'll kill it.
