Fish, Wildlife and Parks wildlife management specialist Jaime Jonkel tells the Missoulian the adult female killed a 35-pound dog on Sunday. Wardens decided the mountain lions needed to be removed and killed two of the kittens on Monday.

Jonkel says a game warden was able to kill the other mountain lions while they were feeding on the dog.
