Linda Spangler-Schrag (62) had a moment “straight out of National Geographic” when she captured a mountain lion on camera as it fended off three coyotes for a kill near Estes Park, Colorado.

In the battle of mountain lion vs. coyotes, who do you think “won”?
She had pulled over after spotting some magpies picking at a dead elk, Spangler-Schrag told the Coloradoan. That’s when she realized that this was something more. There were several mammals interested in the meal as well—three coyotes, and a mountain lion.

The mountain lion had the upper hand, but the coyotes wanted in. The coyotes feigned attacks, and eventually got to eat some of the elk as well.
Spangler-Schrag said she watched the scene for about 10 minutes before calling her brother and a photographer friend to join her. By then, she said other people had pulled over to watch, too.

She told the Coloradoan: “Twenty-six years of living here, I think, manifested into this gift, the highlight of my career.”
Her photos provide a rare glimpse into a private moment; a moment two powerful species had to compete for the same resources.
Unfortunately if u know anything about wild life , /they all get a meal the cat will eat first cause it’s bigger,then the cyottes, and the turkey vulture or other birds of prey .
Looks like a pregnant female mountain lion. She might be eating for three.
Yep. Could be. God’s protection on all the wild life.
No not out of National Geograpic! Out of NATURE! Get out of the city and experience some of nature, then write about it!
What a incredible experience for this great lady!
