“Young” Mountain Lion in Iowa Turns Out to Be a House Cat
Better safe than sorry, but a recent mountain lion sighting in Iowa ended up being a house cat. Described as “young” and “small,” the honest mistake was made in mid-October after spotting the animal roaming through the city’s east side on surveillance footage. If you were wondering if Iowa even has mountain lions, the answer is yes. Mountain lions or cougars are the largest of the three wildcats documented in the state. Bobcats and lynxes are the other two. Photo: Pixabay/Wildfaces Case of Mistaken Identity NBC...

It was a Saturday morning when I saw on my Facebook’s newsfeed the picture of a beautiful husky. The local dog shelter was begging urgently for a foster home for the weekend because of the heat wave. I didn’t want pets in the house at the time because I had just moved in by myself and I was a bit intimidated by it. But I kept thinking about him, and I kept going back to check...
