NEW YORK — Wildlife officers are investigating a reported mountain lion attack in northern California that left a woman's dog fighting for its life after it attempted to defend its owner.
The incident took place Monday afternoon near Big Bar, where the woman took her Belgian malinois for a walk on a trail near a picnic area, according to wildlife officers.
"The mountain lion bit the dog's head and would not let go," California Department of Fish and Wildlife law enforcement division Capt. Patrick Foy said in a statement."The woman attempted to throw rocks, tug and pull them apart. [She] even attempted to gouge the eyes out of the lion, to no avail."
