IDLEDALE, CO -- The owners of a dog killed by a mountain lion in the foothills outside Denver say the big cat entered through an open door of their house as they slept.
Mack and Jacquie Anderson say they awoke early Monday to a commotion in their bedroom, where their two dogs were also sleeping.
Jacquie Anderson said she exclaimed to her husband that there was a mountain lion in the room. She believes that led the animal to run back out the door with their 12-year-old Labrador, Scout, in its mouth. The dog weighed about 70 pounds.
The dog's body was found nearby and wildlife authorities killed the mountain lion yesterday when it returned for the dog's body. Mountain lions often stash their kills and return for them later.

Edgar, you know that you and I are the only ones that believe in this stuff. Apparently, some believe that we are "lying sacks of sh!t".

Quite frankly, I'm still deeply shocked by this accusation. It's completely unfounded.

By the way, have you seen my lasagne story? :wink:

I saw it, but didn't have a good enough reply in mind to post it. I have planted about four or five bogus stories, but mostly gave clues, such as attributing the stories to Roiters news service, which does not exist. It was only a spriggin joke or three. But, this lion is a serious news item. Imagine if that was your dog being treated like a pork chop.
