A man in Colorado Springs got a rude introduction to the animal uprising when he came home from work on Tuesday. He heard his dogs barking then got up to see what was bothering them. Whereupon a mountain lion jumped through his window.
"I got up to shut the dogs up and a mountain lion came through my window, it came right through my screen door," Sanches told KKTV.
He went to a neighbor's house to call for help and he and sheriff's deputies waited outside the house. About an hour later, the big cat butted its head against a screened window before breaking through and running away.
Which of course brings up the really important question: Which is the more serious crime? Breaking and entering or breaking and exiting?
(Oddly, I have right here in front of me this month's Smithsonian Magazine which has this fascinating article on the return of the mountain lion – not everyone is happy about it. If you don't subscribe to Smithsonian, why?)
