- A mountain lion has been confirmed dead after it was hit and killed by a vehicle on Friday around 7:25 PM, according to Oceanside Police. However, it is unknown if this is the same mountain lion that caused a stir on social media recently.
The mountain lion was walking along North River Road in a remote area of Oceanside east of Wilshire Road halfway between Fallbrook when it was struck by a vehicle.
Fish and Wildlife responded and took possession of the animal remains. They are working to determine if this is the same mountain lion that was seen outside the Oceanside Civic Center and Regal Cinemas Theater on Thursday night.
CBS 8 spoke with Tim Daly at Fish and Wildlife to ask if it was possible to determine if this is the same animal. He responded by saying without a way to positively identify the animal, it is very difficult if not impossible to confirm this is the same mountain lion. However, Daly did not rule out the possibility of it being the same animal.

Agreed build a wildlife crossing since we keep building in their habitats
Mountain Lion Lives Matter
They do! Breaks my heart.
Yep , more than people's lives . Use that money to build homeless shelters . Or build a million studio apartments for the homeless. It's funny how the government can always " find " money for everything / everybody, except taxpayers .🙄
That's too bad.
I remember long time ago, I was hiking on top of Reseda in Tarzana CA. It is a hiking area around the Santa Monica mountains. I spotted a mountain lion before getting in my car after running 7 miles in the mountains. The cat was staring at me like she had been hunting me for a while because I was careless about my environment but my ignorance saved me I thought she was cute and kept waving at her as if she were a domestic pet. I realized later in life that I had been hunted and never realized it until I got to my car. I don't think I was ever a threat to the cat because I never showed any fear. I was almost attacked by a pack of coyotes because they wanted my dogs, This was another incident in nature by the way, I screamed on top of my longs until I made them go. I wasn't going to let these f coyotes take my dogs without dignity
Mountain lions tend to be much more shy to humans than coyotes. This is partly because coyotes hunt in groups while mountain lions are solitary hunters. Mountain lions are also very stealthy, if you are out in the woods they will watch you from a distance and you might never know they are there. If they are not desperate from hunger they mostly just watch. They have a keen sense of prey they can take without risk of getting hurt, because if they get injured they starve.
@user-dw6dp5yx7b Coyotes are sly. If you have a male dog they will actually do things like sending a female coyote in heat to try to lure it into an ambush.
Poor little mountain lion 😢 is so sad 😭
Incredibly tragic. Just one small effect of human encroachment.
I knew I wasn’t crazy. I saw one a few years ago on a hillside of a canyon in Oceanside. Nobody believed me.
there are way more in the area. they are good at hiding. ive seen bob cats. cayotes, never a mountain lion in the san luis river,
Darn!😢
Sad
darn.... I love Mountain Lions...
Most cougars in Oceanside can be found hanging around the local pubs trying to pick up on marines from Camp Pendleton.
😢😢😢 poor lil fella
They killed the mountain lion on purpose! 🤦
How do you know

Poor thing
Poor animal.
My husband and I reported a sighting last year on the san luis rey bike trail, it chased us on our ebikes late one night,, lucky we were on ebikes. Game and Fish took the report. Its been in the area for awhile.
Person probably hit it on purpose. I hate people.
My sister was on the news her name is Haley riggie❤️
It's gonna keep happening. Theyre awful afraid of cities, and that was a skinny lion. You'll never see a healthy lion. But a desperate one will get curious.
Poor cat😢
you don’t need to “make yourself big” if you encounter one. you already look “big” to them, and most of the time they’ll just run away. just stay calm and stay quiet. no need for all that other ridiculous nonsense
building all these houses so they can sit ?
How sad, poor cat never had a chance.

Some idiot decided to take matters in his own hands and killed it.
Kids live in that neighborhood.
I understand the people who are involved with PETA groups and humane society. But an animal like that running around in civil society and people are just supposed to stay calm when they see it. What if it's a young child or a pregnant woman? They are supposed to stay calm and be big? Who ever took out the animal, I would congratulate!!!! You have a big cat like that running around the community and they're supposed to just remain calm?!?!
Young children or pregnant woman shouldn't be out at 2 in the morning when the big cats hunt
@@MiMiiViViit hasn't been dry as we've had more wet weather than usual this winter. This is really what happens when people think they're being friendly to nature and feed other wildlife like deers, foxes, etc. Those are prey animals for Mountain Lions, so by luring they're prey closer to humans, you're luring more Mountain Lions closer to humans by extension.
Stupid cars .
Let’s take all the money from the homeless programs and build the wildlife pathways

Free food!!!! 🧂🍴
Close the border.
