So today in my internet wanderings I found a new entry in the annals of fate protecting fools and little children with this story of a mountain lion making itself at home behind the sofa. Don't try this at home kids you're likely not nearly whackadoodle enough to pull it off.

I'm generally of the idea that this is BS in some way shape or form like the cat having been captive to humans as a cub and then released.
