wildlife world zoo jobs A Mountain Lion Cubs Day Out

We took out mountain lion cubs out to our playground area... and their reaction is ADORABLE!

Unlike the typical buff colored adults, baby mountain lions are camouflaged with dark spots that fade during their first year.

Female mountain lions weigh an average of 100 pounds. Male mountain lions grow significantly larger, weighing up to 180 pounds.

Unlike the African lion, the mountain lion is a solitary creature, excluding breeding season — males do not play an active role in rearing the young.

Mountain lions are some of the most adaptable animals in the Western Hemisphere. They are able to adapt to almost any type of habitat from desert scrub, to swamps and grasslands, to mountain forest.

Historically, mountain lions could be found anywhere from the east coast to the west coast and as north as Alaska and south as the southern tip of South America. However, due to the rapid growth of modernization during the past century, there has been significant habit loss and a decline in prey. This has caused the mountain lion population to dramatically decrease. Other than a small mountain lion population found in Florida, this large predator was nearly eliminated from the eastern United States.

Due to the mountain lions diversity, local names for the mountain lion vary depending on the region they are in. In the English language, the Mountain Lion is known by over 40 different names, such as the puma, cougar, and panther.

Given the declining population and elusive nature of these large predators, visiting the mountain lion cubs at Wildlife World is a great way for guests and school children to learn the importance of maintaining a healthy ecosystem and to learn about the wildlife that can be found in our own backyards!
