STUDIO CITY, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — A homeowner in Studio City did a double take when he watched footage from his Ring camera and saw a large mountain lion right outside.<\/p>\n
Chad Landers says he woke up in the middle of the night over the weekend and decided to check his security cameras.<\/p>\n
After spotting a raccoon and a couple of coyotes, which are common in the area, he then spotted what he thought was a well-known bobcat in the residential neighborhood.<\/p>\n
“But I’m like that looks awfully big to be the bobcat so then when it came into focus on a different camera, I was like holy crap, that’s a mountain lion. It was so massive. My Tahoe is a pretty big vehicle and when you see the cat up against that, you’re like OK this thing is huge,”<\/p>\n
Landers says he’s more concerned about the mountain lion’s safety on the busy street that’s near Ventura Boulevard than he is about resident safety.<\/p>\n
He didn’t see a tag on the big cat, but notified wildlife authorities about the sighting.<\/p>\n
