WATCH: An up-close and personal look at mountain lion kittens

Mountain lion P-42 has kittens! Turn up the volume to hear the chirping and general kitten cuteness. These kittens will face many challenges to survive -- we hope to GPS collar them when they're older so we can learn about their transition to adulthood and dispersal. #catvideos pic.twitter.com/N6uXTgeux1

This exclusive footage taken by Santa Monica park officials shows two little mountain lion kittens going about their daily routine and even calling for their mom! These little ones are the litter from Mountain Lion P-42. The kittens will ideally be tagged when they’re older for learning purposes.
