Sheep-killing cougar caught on video

After losing several of his sheep to a unknown person or predator, Carson, Nevada rancher Jack Foerschler placed night-vision video cameras in his barn. What he captured were some spectacular images of a mountain lion attacking his flock. In one scene, the cougar leaps effortlessly over the six-foot fence, soon returning with a lamb in its mouth. A federal ADC trapper subsequently caught the big cat. The Nevada Appeal has the incredible video footage and story.
