A mountain lion that made its way inside an empty classroom at a Peninsula high school Wednesday was eventually captured and transported to the Oakland Zoo for a health evaluation, according to officials.
A quick-thinking custodian safely confined the curious cougar in the classroom at Pescadero High School after the juvenile cat walked on campus Wednesday morning, officials said.
No injuries were reported, and students and staff were sent home for the day in the interest of public safety, according to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office. "I honestly thought it was a senior prank at first because it is the day before school is out, but I quickly learned, based on the source of the information, that that was not the case," La Honda-Pescadero Unified School District Superintendent Amy Wooliever said.
