"Trail Camera in Wyoming Captures Mountain Lion Family in Rare Footage"

In rural Laramie County, Wyoming, a trail camera set up by resident Donald Harris captured a rare sight of a mother mountain lion with three cubs, indicating a successful breeding despite the low survival rates for kittens in the wild. Harris, who consulted a wildlife expert to optimize camera placement, is an advocate for the role of mountain lions in controlling deer populations affected by chronic wasting disease (CWD). While taking precautions for safety, Harris appreciates the presence of these top predators in maintaining ecological balance.
