DENVER -- A mountain lion approached a man and his wife Saturday night as they were soaking in a hot tub west of Nathrop, Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials said.
Inside, the couple cleaned the man’s wounds and called state wildlife officials, who arrived and began searching for the lion, Vogrin said. “We think it’s likely the mountain lion saw the man’s head move in the darkness at ground-level but didn’t recognize the people in the hot tub,” Sean Shepherd, CPW area wildlife manager based in Salida, said. “The couple did the right thing by making noise and shining a light on the lion.”“Although this victim had only minor injuries, we take this incident seriously. We have alerted neighbors and posted signs warning of lion activity,” Shepherd continued.
