Mountain Lion Sightings

   Mountain lion sightings in the county are up, and many people panic and call the Sheriff who notifies Fish and Game.
   Just because you see a mountain lion doesn't mean it's out to get you, especially if its near a creek or other water.  This is a very dry year, and the lions and other critters get thirsty too.
   When you call the Sheriff just because you see one, Fish and Game will send one of their Killers out to get it.  That isn't usually necessary, but they seem to enjoy it.
   Most of these wild creatures only come out at night, but thirst will drive them to expose themselves in daylight. Stay calm. They don't eat people.
