Mystery in Indiana: Are These Lions Really Roaming Free?

A 300-pound lioness and her cub are thought to be on the loose in central Indiana, prompting authorities to launch a massive search effort for the apex predators. 

The prowling pair are believed to be on the lam somewhere in northern Hancock or southern Madison counties in the Hoosier State, WXIN reported. 

Around 10 a.m. Thursday, the Madison County Sheriff’s Department said it received a report of two large exotic cats on the loose on South Country Road 50 West in Jackson Township.
