A young mountain lion that was strangled last month by a Colorado jogger the animal attacked was a 4-month-old orphan, state wildlife officials have revealed. The mountain lion’s body, which had been partially eaten, likely by his two orphaned siblings, was recovered Feb. 4, the day of the attack. “Mountain lions are solitary animals, only coming together for breeding,” Colorado Parks and Wildlife spokesman Jason Clay told NBC News on Friday. There was dried blood in the mountain lion’s paws, but officials did not reveal if it was from Kauffman, The Coloradoan reported. Three people have been killed by mountain lions in Colorado since 1990.
