Night-stalking mountain lion spotted near downtown Denver REI store and other neighborhoods (via thknwco)
A security camera detected a prowler armed with massive canine teeth and sharp claws early Friday morning in a parking lot near the REI Denver Flagship store at Confluence Park.
“It can be surprising to some people in urban areas, but it’s not that uncommon for mountain lions to come in,” Clay said. “Where it was by that REI, it likely traveled in following the South Platte River. It probably happens a lot more than we know about. If there wasn’t security camera footage, no one would ever have known about it.”
Wildlife officers assisted by Denver Animal Control and Denver police responded, assessed the situation and decided they wouldn’t be able to relocate the animal safely.
