(Bismarck, ND) --  There has been another mountain lion sighting in Bismarck.

The images were caught on the backyard camera of a Bismarck family around 2 a.m. Tuesday. The family alerted their neighbors, as well as the Bismarck Police Department.

North Dakota Game and Fish experts say the wild cats tend to follow the Missouri River and probably won't be around for long. Anyone who crosses paths with a mountain lions should raise their arms, yell, and slowly back away.
