I've heard that Mountain Lions can be domesticated since, unlike tigers and Lions, they are closely related genetically to the house cat. Although I don't think that would be practical.

Quite massive cat.

Holy crap! I grew up in this neighborhood!

He does look "lost". Sometimes the mother is killed before she has a chance to teach her cubs what where how to hunt on their own. Hope this one got it figured out.

Scottish wild cats are also closely related to house cats-good luck tamming one of those!!!
Domestication takes years of careful select breeding of docile animals-not every animal can be domesticated-would never try a cougar...

I think it's lost.

People in that neighborhood must not let their kids outside if they're that comfortable with a cougar walking the streets. It's probably eating cats and dogs.

has there ever been any incidents of attacks?

Not yet. There are lots of deer in the area, so a mountain lion is more likley to go after them. We hear the big cats at night every couple of months. A unique coughing/barking/snarling sound. A hoarse-sounding "arrrgh" sound. Makes you glad you're not camping out back.

Morgan Hill is about 20 miles south of Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area.
