‘I Thought I’m the Only Cougar in your house’: Lady Spots Mountain Lion in Avocado Tree

Corrina Bubenheim of Forest Hills, California got a surprise recently when her 2 German Shepards started barking intensely at a large avocado tree in the backyard. Ends up, there was a mountain lion in the tree, and she certainly had a good sense of humor about it.

After the pet dogs alerted their owner to something amiss and she identified a lot of fallen leaves around the base of her tree, Bubenheim investigated.

“I examined, and I looked up, and I thought, ‘it’s larger than a squirrel, may be a possum,'” Bubenheim told local news.” [But then] I believed, ‘this is furry; it appears like a German Shepard, however a German Shepard doesn’t get up the tree.’ And after that it looked down; it was a mountain lion.”

The Forest Hills community surrounds the Santa Monica Mountains in Los Angeles’s San Fernando Valley. Mountain lions appear occasionally, however rarely sufficient that Bubenheim had reason to believe a cougar would be hanging out in her tree that afternoon.

“I believed I’m the only cougar in the house,” she joked with the reporter from NBCLA.

After calling wildlife authorities, Bubenheim waited numerous hours while the mountain lion relaxed in her tree, then casually left without human intervention. Authorities went door to door in the area warning locals of the cougar’s presence and recommending them to keep animals inside.

Bubenheim believes the mountain lion may have established camp in her avocado tree because it was curious about her yard chicken cage. The good news is, no human beings, domesticated animals, or wild animals were injured.
