Mountain Lion Sightings Increase in Omaha Neighborhoods
A mountain lion was spotted in a Papillion neighborhood near 96th Street and Schram Road, marking the fourth confirmed sighting in the city since July 24. Concerns about the safety of small pets have been raised by residents. Authorities advise calling them if a mountain lion is seen, and the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission's protocol is to kill the animal if possible within city limits. If the mountain lion leaves the city, it will not be killed. Residents are urged to keep their distance and find shelter if encountering such an animal.
