Ladies protect your men 😅

Leave it alone. It’s probably trying to get away from people.

This makes sence, its wooded area behind the beach so it's probably coming down during dawn

It seems stupid to not capture it. Now it can just go into somebody’s backyard. There r small kids and pets all over the place😨

[@DottonTuffin]

Oh please stop. Humans are too many on this planet. These animals are fighting out here to stay alive with little home they have because of us.

@@mollkatlessit’s literally spotted in the wild on haystack rock away from people. What is wrong with you? You can’t just wipe out an entire species. It showed no aggression, it was minding its business and moved on. Grow a pair, you sound like a wimp.

Oregonians must learn to co-exist with Mountain Lions and not cull them. It ought to be a semi regular event that Haystack Rock is closed so the lions can have their seafood. Let there be lion watching like whale watching, only with far more security, and never a lion cull issued by the State of Oregon nor any of it's Counties.
