Crazy Sight: Mountain Lion Atop Utility Pole

One of the more unusual sights of the week comes via the Victorville Daily Press in California, which captured an image of a mountain lion on top of a power pole. The big cat apparently scrambled up the 35-foot pole in the Lucerne Valley on Tuesday when kids traveling home on a school bus startled it. Wildlife officials parked nearby to keep gawkers at a distance, and the mountain lion left its perch for the wild sometime Tuesday night. (More mountain lion stories.)
