A one-of-a-kind study was recently completed on the mountain lion population in California. The overall data could have a far-reaching impact for the lions as well as land use decisions for things like highway expansion and housing development.
L.A. Times staff writer Louis Sahagún told Lisa McRee the lion population was much lower than anticipated.
