      @reignkaida this isn't the first time. 3 years ago a mountain lion was spotted in Summerlin. It was tranquilizer and removed. It wasn't too far from where I live in Summerlin. So while they may be found further away, the know how to get to Las Vegas

      There was one spotted in the area of Kenny Guinn Middle School/Harvey Dondero Elementary School/West Flamingo Senior Center in May 2022. It slipped away from the police and NV wildlife officers looking for it. It is presumed to have traveled along a wash leading in from west of town. That area is around the intersection of Flamingo and Jones. But getting to Valley View is mind-boggling.

    Omg the news and most of you got bamboozald! That is a small cat. Look at the wall of the stairs. The wall of stairs height should be about 43 inches in height and the trash can is around 38 inches, now compare it to the cat! The cat is around 8 - 11 inches in height! WTF 8 NEWS!!! Do better investigative work.

    It's someone's escaped pet. There's no way that's wild being that deep in the urban jungle. Any such animal coming from the fringes would've been mowed down by cars doing 90 in 45mph zones as there's zero enforcement.

    This has been happening for forever and even more since we have moved into their territory but now we have cameras to catch it. I know at least twice I was followed by mountain lions in Arizona(saw glimpses of them)and if they had wanted me as food I would have been food so we need to stop being terrified of the low risk threats to our lives when we are much more likely to pass away in a car accident

    Or the abandoned bldgs (homes/offices) turn those areas into a Gated community??
