    A woman in Woodland Hills whose German Shepherds began running around a tree in her backyard Thursday found a mountain lion watching them from above.

    Homeowner Corinna Bubenheim said she first spotted the mountain lion in her avocado tree near Woodlake Avenue and Mariano Street around 2 p.m.

    Bubenheim said she thought her dogs were “just making a big fuss about a squirrel … and then I saw the big paws and its fur.”

    Los Angeles Animal Services officers were sent to warn other residents and remained in the area as a precaution.

    The lion eventually climbed down the tree and escaped to a wash behind the home.

    Bubenheim said mountain lions are not a usual sight in the neighborhood.
