    Yes, these cats were rescued by Fish and Wildlife. We have no idea what happened to the mother. Anybody commenting on the mother is just guessing. There has never been any report of a Mountain lion in this area that was killed or hit by a car.
    Since this video was filmed there was an update to the story. The three cats were cared for here in the local area of Preston Idaho. About two weeks ago they were placed in a wildlife preserve in North Carolina. The sad part of the story is that one of the Cubs had a bad reaction to the sedative and died. The other two are now in North Carolina alive and well.
    This has been a life changing experience for me. Not only the experience of the Cubs but meeting people who have seen the video
    and the conversations are so cool. Thanks to everyone who has commented and watched the video. God Bless

      Crusader1815 people like are you are exactly why wildlife gets shot. These babies look fine (one looks thinner because there is usually a runt and a dominant sibling) and they don't always stay with the mother. Some get curious and die while others don't... It's sad, but that is how this have always been. If you start feeding them then they'll keep coming back. Someone will report it and then they'll be shot. Educate yourself properly and respect them from afar (unless they are actually injured and are in need of wildlife rehabilitation - then contact *the professionals*).

    I think they were too young to be afraid of much. I had actually walked outside to see where they went at one point, walked around a corner and almost ran right into them. They just stood there so I walked backwards back into my home. They were very young and still in the exploration phase of being a cub or kitten.

      @elcajondavid1 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You were lucky. Usually the mother is nearby. Had a friend that worked trucking logs out of the forest nearby, and he spotted what looked like an orphan cub. Decided to stop and pickup the poor thing, and by the time he made it back to the truck with the cub, the mother showed up, and he said she was ticked beyond belief and wanted her cub back. I asked him why he did not toss the cub out of the truck, and he said he was afraid of opening even a window, because she was most definitely not afraid of the semi. They kept the cat for a little while until fish and game found out about it, and took the cat from them. Guess it eventually made it's way to the San Diego Zoo.

      yeah, they were not being ''playful exploring kittens'. they were near death starving. chances are they have not eaten in weeks. some hunter probably shot and killed, hunted the mother, and left her cubs behind to die. when cub animals are close to dying, they are most likely not going to be 'playing and exploring'. they are going to be behaving very irrational, like 'coming out into sight where they will be killed by any passing predator'.
