Unless your a wildlife biologist who studies deer herd management and lion populations you shouldn’t talk. If this was Yukon country I’d understand Phaler’s point, but it’s not. People live and farm around here, deer get fed more, deer feed lions more…. Lion population experiences growth based on deer population. Issue tags for deer and lions??? maybe

I understand if you catch a lion in your yard disturbing livestock you have the right to shoot it but to hunt a lion after the damage is done and to kill it and it’s young is chicken sh:t

Interfered with our natural wildlife resources with out forethought? What is your evidence or expertise on this subject Mr Phaler? Could we have some consideration for the grieving kids? You mountain lion lovers come off has both heartless as well as ignorant.

Guess you need another donkey. People need to take responsibility for their own actions. Take the steps to predator proof your livestock area or face the consequences. You moved to an area with wildlife – if you don’t protect your livestock, of course you’ll encounter a wild animal – not exactly a surprise. But no, lets just kill everything in the surrounding area instead. Great idea..

A guard donkey was on duty when “Darla” the pregnant goat was killed. She was also area enclosed with a electric fence.
