Dec. 18 (UPI) -- A wild cougar helped out the guards at a Utah prison by performing a "perimeter patrol" on the fences outside the grounds.

The Utah Department of Corrections tweeted a photo of the mountain lion wandering just outside of the perimeter fence surrounding the Central Utah Correctional Facility in Gunnison.
