What Wakes You Up In The Morning?

This morning, my wife was awakened by a mountain lion yowl.

UPDATE: I see another Boise County resident had a less pleasant encounter with one a few days ago:
A 10-year-old Boise County resident was not seriously injured in a mountain lion attack last week, Idaho Department of Fish and Game officials said Friday.
Fortunately, his father scared it off with a 9mm.  Fish & Game tracked it down and killed it.

    I think you need to curb your enthusiasm for her first thing in the morning.

    Are mountain lions a protected species in Idaho as they are in California? We had this discussion before but I'm suffering from CRAFT disease right now (can't remember a freakin' thing).

    Mountain lions are not protected here. That was a California initiative--yet another reminder that democracy, for all its virtues, is not idiot-proof.
