Joe Rogan is calling out city officials for allowing mountain lions to eat pets and to run unchecked across America.
Speaking with hunters Cameron Hanes and Adam Greentree, Rogan weighed in on mountain lions across the country. He described them as, "It's like a werewolf's loose in your town."
Rogan criticized officials in certain states for not curbing the mountain lion populations. He said that the animals are left unchecked and have begun eating pets. In particular, Rogan called out California and San Francisco.
"They're doing nothing to curb the population. And this is the thing is like people go, 'Oh, it's OK Let nature do its thing.' No, it doesn't do its thing. It kills your dog, OK?" he said during the podcast. "One of the things they found out in San Francisco in the Bay Area was when they do shoot these mountain lions, they've done an analysis of their diet. It's 50% dogs and cats."

Rogan claims that mountain lions are regularly eating pets and that dogs and cats make up half their diets.
He said, "50% of their diet is eating people's pets. So, they're hunting people's pets. That means you are, if you're a dog lover, you're allowing a monster to eat your dog because you think that's the right thing to do and to be kind with nature. No, you have to hunt them. You have to get them the f— away from you and keep a healthy population of them, because if you don't do that, it comes back to bite you in the d—."
Rogan, who previously lived in California, says that mountain lions are more common in the area than deer. He blames mountain lions for this issue. He says Texas does a better job of keeping things under control.
He said, "You know why? Because there's no mountain lions, and you can shoot them. California has a mountain lion problem."
