CHATSWORTH, Calif.—Three more mountain lions are living in our midst Thursday, with National Park Service (NPS) officials confirming the recent births of three kittens spotted in the Simi Hills between the Santa Monica and Santa Susana mountains.
The female kittens, born to a mountain lion dubbed P-77, were discovered May 18 by biologists taking part in a decades-long study of lions in the Southland mountains, NPS officials said. All three kittens were determined to be 24 days old when they were discovered, based on when their mother—who is outfitted with a radio collar—first arrived at the location, according to the park service.
