This isn't the first time this tracked lion has made headlines: The mountain lion was also suspected to have killed a koala at the Los Angeles Zoo in 2016.
By Zoe Sottile, CNN A mountain lion attacked and killed a Los Angeles resident's pet chihuahua on an evening walk in the Hollywood Hills, according to CNN affiliate KTLA.
"It was like a two- or three-second struggle," said the man."He had Piper in his mouth. He didn't growl at all. I didn't even hear him. I never had a chance." And this isn't the first time P-22 has made headlines: The mountain lion was also suspected to have killed a koala at the Los Angeles Zoo in 2016, the agency said.
"There is no evidence that preying on pets is related to an increased chance of an attack on a person, either in mountain lions, or in other urban carnivores such as coyotes," the service said in an emailed statement to CNN."Mountain lion attacks on humans are exceedingly rare, although they do occur."
Jimenez told KTLA that he doesn't blame the mountain lion, but wants other pet owners to use caution when walking their pets, especially after dark.
