Cubs' mother struck, killed

UC Davis Carnivore Cam

MAMA COUGAR F390 with her cubs, orphaned at "a critical time in their lives."

The two cubs, one male and one female, are 14 months old — essentially adolescents in the mountain lion life cycle. They were still being looked after by their shy, small mother, dubbed F390, at the time of her death on Sept. 4.

The cubs would probably have stayed with her for a few more months, learning how to hunt and navigate, before going on to live independently, according to Fernando Nájera, director of the program.
