A mountain lion cub that was struck by a vehicle and sustained horrendous injuries — including a fractured skull — has been released back into the wild, according to the San Diego Humane Society.

In addition to the released lion, the center is currently caring for two orphaned mountain lion cubs brought in on March 26 after they were found alone.

After receiving 153 days of care at the San Diego Humane Society's Ramona Wildlife Center, the mountain lion was released to a remote location of the Santa Ana Mountains on June 17.

After being born two short months ago, lion cubs, Adari and Zarina, are now joining the drive-through habitat at Lion Country Safari.

An orphaned mountain lion cub rescued by state wildlife staff in southwest Colorado has been successfully raised and released back into the wild, getting a second chance at a normal life.
