Girl mauled by a cougar...

A 16-year-old girl was mauled by a cougar, but survived when a neighbor saved her from the animal's cage at a northwest Miami home.

The girl sustained some really significant wounds and she was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

She and her friend by the name Anthony Zitnick illegally entered a wildlife collector's home.

Once they got into the house a 150-pound male cougar named Chaos "pounced on the girl and clenched his jaws around her head."

Zitnick was later arrested.

A neighbor heard screams and wrestled the animal away.

The owner of the home is said to have legal permits to keep two cougars and several snakes, tortoises and alligators.

My opinion of this is why is this man allowed to keep wildlife in home?

And as for the guy who brought the girl into the home to get mauled, I wonder how he felt when he saw the cougar on top of her.

What was going through his head at that point and why did it take a neighbor to get the cougar off of her and what was he doing the whole time.

The whole situation is just ridiculous!
