Mountain Lion Sighting in D.C.

Washington DC – Some believe a mountain lion may be lurking in northwest Washington. One neighbor described the creature as larger and wider than a deer, with the long tail of a cat. Another woman said she was walking her dog in McLean Gardens at the edge of Glover Park when she spotted the large cat last week.  The cat, which she believes is a mountain lion, ran off into some nearby woods. Someone else reported seeing the cat last February. The latest sighting happened to a woman who says she spotted the animal near the Beltway exit to Connecticut Avenue.  more
