‘Hollywood Cat,’ a mountain lion living in LA neighborhoods, was trapped to check his health after acting aggressive.
Famed Griffith Park mountain lion P-22 was captured Monday, Dec. 12 in the backyard of a Los Feliz home in Los Angeles, and state and federal wildlife experts plan to evaluate the big cat’s health in the wake of several recent attacks on pet dogs.
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the National Park Service announced Thursday they planned to capture P-22 to evaluate his health and “determine the best next steps for the animal while also prioritizing the safety of surrounding communities.” .P-22 is the 22nd puma identified by Santa Monica Mountains National Park Service biologists.
Brendan Smith, a writer and actor, was inspired to make a documentary about P22, a mountain lion who calls Griffith Park its home, after spending hours in the park walking his dog Django in Los Angeles, on Wednesday, July 12, 2017. Steve Winter, who photographed mountain lion P-22 in front of the Hollywood Sign, is videoed by Sharon Guynup following a groundbreaking for a bridge over the 101 Freeway to allow mountain lions and other animals to move across the freeway, Friday, April 22, 2022, in Agoura Hills. “This is an unprecedented situation in which a mountain lion has continued to survive in such an urban setting,” according to the DFW statement.
