家裡意外被不速之客闖入!美國加州一對夫妻週日在享受假期時,突然聽到家裡某處傳出巨響,起初以爲是鄰居養的貓咪串門子,當他們走去查看,才發現這隻「貓」竟然是一隻野生美洲獅,正躺在浴室磁磚納涼,嚇得趕緊衝到地下室避難,打電話請專業人員協助。

夫妻愛德華和凱西這天要從家裡離開,前腳纔剛踏出去,就聽到走廊傳出巨響,再次走進家門時,一隻美洲獅出現在愛德華眼前,1人1獅看到彼此,嚇得各自往反方向狂奔。美洲獅先走進辦公室,接着走到浴室,自己把門關上安靜的躺在磁磚納涼,而夫妻倆則躲在地下室打電話求救,「我非常清楚發生了什麼事,我知道接下來該怎麼做。」

▲美洲獅順利從窗戶離開民宅

野生動物保護組織California Department of Fish and Wildlife派遣專員協助,由於浴室在二樓,專員們先是走上去查看,美洲獅正悠閒的躺在地板休息,看到有人靠近,馬上用圓圓的大眼掃視,張嘴露出驚訝的表情彷彿在說,「咦?你們還在啊~地板借我躺一下」,維持同樣的姿勢,完全沒有要離開的意思

專員們表示,美洲獅生性害羞,一般來說不會主動靠近人生活區域,他們決定用噪音來驅趕,徵求過屋主同意,用木頭砸破窗戶,儘可能移除碎玻璃,提供了逃生路線,另一方面敲打門發出聲響,順利將美洲獅請出家門,結束這場驚魂記。

An intruder caught in the act! Last night, our deputies were called to the 16000 block of Oakhaven Lane in Sonora for reports of a break-in. The perpetrator slyly made his way through the open front door of the home. He did not threaten the resident or steal anything. After being spotted, he tried to make a run for it but ended up cornered in a bathroom. Fish and Wildlife were contacted and assisted our deputies in coaxing the mountain lion out of the second story bathroom window. He did get a stern warning about the break-in before being released. Fish and Wildlife do not consider mountain lion sightings near human habitation a public safety concern as long as the lion is not exhibiting aggressive behavior towards people. Mountain lions tend to be shy and extremely stealthy. That said, keep doors to your home and outbuildings closed and secure. If you do encounter a mountain lion here are some helpful safety tips: make noise, act defiant and not afraid, maintain eye contact, never run away, slowly create distance, and fight back if you’re attacked!
