Here’s a piece of uplifting content that we all could use right now. This adorable little cutie that you can see in the photos and the video below is an orphaned 12-week-old mountain lion cub that was discovered by firefighters back in September. The cub was found in Southern California near Idyllwild. Unfortunately, she was in an extremely terrible condition: the cub was starving, severely dehydrated, and weighed less than 11 pounds.
But don’t worry—this story has a happy ending. And it’s all thanks to the kind firefighters and the San Diego Humane Society who decided to take the little cub in. After five weeks of specialized care in the shelter, the little mountain lion is healthy and thriving.

“After five weeks of Project Wildlife’s specialized care, the cub’s health has greatly improved and she is now 22 pounds! Soon, she’ll move to her permanent home at a qualified wildlife facility,” announced the San Diego Humane Society.
