Former NFL DT Derek Wolfe Says He Killed Mountain Lion with a Bow in Colorado

Former NFL defensive lineman Derek Wolfe said Thursday that he killed a large male mountain lion with a bow and arrow after receiving word that it was "wreaking havoc in a rural neighborhood" in Colorado.

Wolfe posted a photo of himself holding the lifeless mountain lion on Instagram and included a caption that explained the situation.

The 32-year-old former Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens player wrote that he was contacted after a woman in the rural community of Grant, Colorado said the mountain lion killed two of her dogs and began living under her porch.
