Trail cam captures up-close moment of apex predator with her army steps away from residential areaDaily MailBy NOA HALFF26 April 2025
A trail camera has captured the incredible moment between a huge mountain lion and her three cubs just steps away from a residential California neighborhood.The close-up and intimate moment was captured by a camera set up by Vishal Subramanyan and Cynthia Cross, who have been patiently staking out the Diablo Range for three years in their quest to document the elusive mountain lions of Northern California.They finally hit the jackpot when their motion-sensor camera captured not just one massive apex predator but her family including three cute cubs in the East Foothills of San Jose.'All our dreams came true,' Subramanyan told KRON4, speaking about the February recording.The remarkable footage, which lasts 20 minutes, showed the mother mountain lion nursing her young cubs in the wooded area just outside the suburban neighborhood.One especially sweet moment was captured showing the predator picking up a cub while the others playfully pranced around.The UC Berkeley graduate, who holds degrees in ecology and statistics, called it 'one of the most special moments we've ever captured.''Mountain lions are obviously an incredible species,' Subramanyan said. 'As an apex predator in the Bay Area, they play a really important role in top-down ecological effects.'(more)https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14645431/trail-cam-moment-apex-predator-california-neighborhood.html

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
