Los Angeles' famous mountain lion P-22 had kidney disease, infections and other chronic conditions before he was captured and euthanized following a vehicle strike.
The mountain lion P-22, who lived in the heart of Los Angeles for more than a decade and became the face of an international campaign to save Southern California’s threatened pumas, was euthanized Saturday.
