INTRODUCTION
Dear Ones,
In this video I was making sure that the San Fernando Valley was not being threatened by the Franklin Fire that started in Malibu. I was talking about this with the Ravens and the Mountain Lions on Castro Peak Motorway in the Santa Monica Mountains.
Please note that the Mountain Lions talk slowly and impressively. Consequently they take some time to speak a sentence. While they are saying that sentence, the Raven and I might talk together a few times.
There is a Summary after the video. I grouped all the conversations within a particular ‘blip’ of time together. I separated out each ‘blip’ by adding blank lines. If you see one sentence with blank lines before and after, then the ‘blip’ contained only that sentence.
There is a Transcript in the youtube video. Click “… more’ beneath the video, and then click “Show Transcript.”
Listen twice for the Ro-a-ar! of a Male Mountain Lion on the video!
PREP WORK
Here are other people’s videos with Mountain Lion roaring sounds …
Video: “Hear the Cougar Roar!” by dholpathakworld, in youtube … https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rqkm6okBVps … COMMENTS: I also hear a rough and tough mezzo-soprano voice saying: “I want OUT OF THIS …D-MN PLACE!” Can you hear it?
Video: “Backyard Growl! Mountain Lion in Santa Barbara!” by AtCatsPeacocks, in youtube … https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KiRE8ebnH_8 … COMMENTS: I also hear a tenor voice say: “I don’t know why you are looking at me when I am going away.” Do you hear it?
Video: “What Does a Mountain Lion Sound Like? (Terrifying Growl of a Cougar),” by Nozy by Natures, in youtube … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScA4Q1fqMvg … COMMENTS: These are clips of different kinds of purrs and growls. Here are the words I hear along with the roaring sounds …
- Clip 1 (2 Mountain Lions on a Rock): While roaring, the Mountain Lion on the left says in a low, burred voice: I am snoring now. I am old.
- Clip 2: While yawning and roaring the Mountain Lion says: I am yawning.
- Clip 3: While walking, the Mountain Lion says: That lady does not love me at ALL. NO, NOT AT ALL!
- Clip 4: Who ARE you. [licking lips] Ohhh, I will eat.
- Clip 5 (very brief, Mountain Lion approaching from right) and Clip 6: another Mountain Lion walking. The first Mountain Lion (presumably that’s the one) screams: I DON’T LOVE you!
- Clip 7 (Mountain Lion with reddish hair growls/purrs): You are looking at me, hoping I will walk along.

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
“Raven Talk: Franklin Fire – 12 December 2024”
By Alice B. Clagett
[CAPTION: Raven Snapshot]
Raven: Fire fire fire fire fire … Fire fire fire fire fire.
Alice to Readers: That Raven there [shows Raven perched on telephone pole, then flying away] …
Alice to Readers (continuing):… that was up there on the telephone pole …
Alice to Readers (continuing): … that Raven was warning the other Ravens about the Franklin Fire.
Alice to Readers (continuing): … It tried to say ‘fire’ … I told it ‘fire’ …
but the Ravens called it ‘Crackling’.
[CAPTION: Raven language: Crackling’ means ‘fire’.]
Alice to Readers (continuing): … You know? … the sound ‘crackling’.
Alice to Readers (continuing): … So the Raven said: ‘Fire, Fire, Crackling’.
Alice to Readers: And prior to that, [the Raven] was showing … it was standing on the telephone pole and it was pretending to drink, from the top of the telephone pole, over and over again, …
Alice to Readers (continuing): … to warn the other Ravens they should go where water is right now …
[I may have gotten this sign language wrong, as will be told later in this video.]
Alice to Readers (continuing): … in case the fire in Malibu and Santa Paula
should spread out this way in the Santa Monica Mountains.
Alice to Readers (continuing): … Pretty cool, huh? Very cool.
[CAPTION: Franklin Fire Report: 3 Days after the Fire Started]
Alice to Readers: I am over here at Castro Motorway … Castro Peak Motorway.
Male Mountain Lion 1 (beneath my path, sounding hoarse) to Alice: You will not see the Mountain Lion at ALL.
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Alice: You will not see the Mountain Lion
as he walks away from you right now.
Alice to Readers (speaking at the same time): And I was wondering how the fire looks from here. I do not have a lot to report. Down Stunt Road towards the Pacific Ocean I am not seeing anything [any fire].
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Alice: I am not running away from you, but I am farther from this place right now.
Alice to Readers: The sky is clear and overcast. But farther to the west, past Malibu Creek …
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Alice: I don’t want to hear about all these @#$! ideas, God d-mn you.
Alice to Readers: … State Park, there is smoke over a mountain that way.
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Male Mountain Lion 1: Kit, Please stop. I want to hear what she’s saying to me. So, uh …
Alice to Readers (continuing): Maybe near Kanan Dume Road? Let me just show you …

. . . . .
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Male Mountain Lion 2: I don’t feel good about the lady saying these things at all.
Raven: Stop, stop, stop, stop!
Alice to Readers: The Ravens are going on about this. See? …
Raven: Stop!
Alice to Readers: …Far off over there [to the west] …
Alice to Readers: … this mountain over … far over there …
Male Mountain Lion 2 (above my path) to Mountain Lion 1 (beneath my path): Why don’t you? She is trying to help.
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Male Mountain Lion 2: Oh.

. . . . .
Alice to Readers: That’s, I think, smoke over the mountain, coming up the mountain from the left [from the Pacific Ocean, which is to the south], …
Male Mountain Lion 1 to Male Mountain Lion 2: You think so?
Alice to Readers: … and piling on down towards Freeway 101 [to the right … which is to the north].
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Male Mountain Lion 1: Yeah, I think so.
Male Mountain Lion 1 to himself (very quietly, bewildered): Why would she do that thing?
Alice to Readers: Smoke!
Raven to Alice: CRACK-ling!
Alice to Raven: Crackling!
Raven to Alice: Call it HOT FIRECRACKERS.
Alice to Raven: Crackling! … Crack, crack, crack.
Alice to Raven: That way, over there [telepathically casting an image of the terrain on the other side of the mountains at the top of Stunt Road] …
Alice to Raven: … a lot of, lot of smoke and fire …
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice (grumpily}: D-mn right. That IS correct.
Alice to Raven: Stay away! Stay over here! Don’t you think?
Male Mountain Lion 2, together with Raven, to Alice: GOT that thing, Alice Clagett.
Alice to Raven: Smoke and fire there.
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice: Right.
Alice to Raven: That way. [casting a clairvoyant image of the mountain by Kanan Road]. Way over there. That far mountain …
Male Mountain Lion 2 catches the image strongly, and says along with me: THAT WAY!
Alice to Raven: … Way over there.
Raven to Alice: Stop it!
Alice to Raven: What, what?
Male Mountain Lion 1 (beneath me, softly menacing) to Alice: Roa-a-ar!
Raven 1 (muttering in a very quiet voice) to Raven 2: I said stop talking …
Alice to Raven: What?
Raven 1 to Raven 2 (continuing): … and she just keeps talking!
Male Mountain Lion 2 (above me): My GOD. That woman …
Male Mountain Lion 1 (beneath me, softly menacing) to Alice: Roa-a-ar! … Roa-a-ar!
Raven 1 (very quietly) to Alice: That guy is very angry with you.
Raven 2 (slightly louder) to Alice: I said stop talking, that’s all. Stop talking about that fire.
Male Mountain Lion 2 (to himself): … has that Power.
Alice to Raven 2 (misunderstanding the Raven’s word ‘talk’ to be ‘Hawk’): Hawk?
Male Mountain Lion 1 (beneath me, softly menacing) to Alice: OH, God. Can’t hear my ‘Roa-a-ar!’
Alice to Raven 2: Hawk? [shows Raven in flight, heading north]
Raven 2 to Alice: NOT HAWK! STOP TALK-ing ABOUT THAT FIRE!
Alice to herself (quietly): Here you go [meaning, I got the image of the Raven in flight].
Male Mountain Lion 1 (beneath me, softly menacing): I roa-a-r now-w-w.
Raven 2 (far away) to Male Mountain Lion 1: Mountain Lion, Stop! Don’t eat that …
Songbird to Raven 2: Throw dipsh-t in!
Raven 2 to Male Mountain Lion 1 (continuing): God d-mn lady!
Alice to Readers: I am going to go look for the fire.
Raven to Alice, with Raven chiming in: Stop that WALKing!
Young Mountain Lion (from below): STOP that TALK-ing too.
Raven 2 to Alice (helpfully repeating what the Young Mountain Lion said): Stop that TALKing too.
Alice to Raven 2: What?
Raven 2 (quietly, embarrassed) to Alice: Mountain Lion says ‘Stop that talking’.
Alice to Raven 2: Bye, Raven. See you later.
Male Mountain Lion 1 (with menacing good humor): I KILL everything I WANT TO, GOD D-MN IT ALL!
Alice to Raven 2: I love you! Thank you! Bye.
[DISREGARD THIS embedded caption?: “It sounds like two human telepaths (or maybe two coyotes … or maybe two badgers, as one of my readers suggests) over at Gillette Ranch are adding their votes to the Raven caveats. Can you hear them? Their voices are very quiet, and less gruff than is that of Mr. Raven.’]
[DISREGARD this embedded caption?: “One of the human telepaths (or maybe coyotes, or maybe badgers) says: We don’t think that they are telling her to be quiet.”]
[DISREGARD this embedded caption?: “Another of the human telepaths (or maybe coyotes, or maybe badgers) replies to the first: Right. It sounds like they have things to do and don’t want her to interfere with their assigned tasks.”]
[DISREGARD this embedded caption? “The second human telepath (or coyote?) says in a hushed voice: Righty right right.”]
[CAPTION: Here is the promised changeup in my interpretation of
the Raven ‘drinking water’ pantomime mentioned above …]
Alice to Readers: Oh faux pas here! …
Alice to Readers: … I was just talking telepathically with the Ravens about what it meant dipping down as if to water on top of the telephone pole.
Alice to Readers (continuing): And they said they were explaining about the … they understand what the word ‘ocean’ means.
Alice to Readers: I was saying, on the physical plane, …
Alice to Readers (continuing): … that I had heard, on the telepathic plane, that the fire was spreading up and down the coast by the [Pacific] Ocean.
Alice to Readers (continuing): And I had asked them what this ‘ocean’ … “Do you know what ‘ocean’ means?”
Alice to Readers (continuing): Then they pantomimed [drinking] the water for me.
Alice to Readers: So there are two possible explanations [of the Raven’s ‘drinking water’ pantomime].
Alice to Readers (continuing): Both of them are right cogent, I think.
Alice to Readers (continuing): I think Ravens are quite intelligent.
Rabbits to Alice: We think so too.
[The first explanation was that Ravens should head for water when there is a fire. The second explanation is that the Raven was hoping to make clear to me that Ravens know what the word ‘ocean’ means.]
Alice to Readers: God bless you all, and keep you safe, and be with you through all your days. In love, Light and joy, …
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice: Please don’t ever say that thing any more.
Alice to Readers: … this is Alice B. Clagett. I Am of the Stars … and so are you! Come and visit me …
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice: I just can’t STAND it when you say that type of thing.
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice: I really cannot TOL-erate that feeling.
Alice to Readers: … at my world class, …
Raven to Alice: STOP it!
Alice to Readers (continuing): … WordPress website …
Raven to Alice: OH GOD! STOP it!
Alice to Readers (continuing): … “Awakening with Planet Earth”
[DISREGARD THIS embedded caption? … “Mr. Raven calls humans or maybe coyotes or badgers by an uncomplimentary nickname and says: Don’t listen. That’s not what she wants us to hear.”]
Raven to Alice (somewhat hysterically): Stop it right now!
Alice to Readers (continuing): … https://awakeningwithplanetearth.com ..
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice (menacing, stalking, speaking very softly): I can’t STAND it …
Raven (hysterically): Ha, ha, ha, I can’t stand it any longer.
Alice to Raven: Raven? Raven, Raven?
Male Mountain Lion 2 to Alice (continuing): … when you won’t do what I say.
Alice to Raven: Raven? … Raven?
[Raven’s silence is deafening, isn’t it?]

It sounds like two human telepaths (or maybe two coyotes … or maybe two badgers, as one of my readers suggests) over at Gillette Ranch are adding their votes to the Raven caveats. Can you hear them? Their voices are very quiet, and less gruff than is that of Mr. Raven.
