there's outrage in malibu, california after a local rancher got a permit to hunt down the mountain lion that slaughtered some of her livestock. mountain lions roam freely in the santa monica mountains, and so far there are no reports of the big cats attacking any humans. the national park service has been studying the animals for 13 years, tagging, tracking, and photographing them. and some of the big cats have become local celebrities. bill whitaker has the story for "60 minutes." >> when you moved here, did you know there was a mountain lion in the vicinity? >> no. >> no. not at all. not at all. there are signs for rattlesnakes. there's not signs for mountain lions. >> some view you have here. >> yeah. >> reporter: paula and jason

of a local landmark. not just for the killer view of los angeles but also for an encounter a workman had one day in the crawlspace under the house. he was doing some wiring when he saw something scary. >> he comes into my office terrified, and he says, bro, you have a mountain lion in your house, bro. and so i said to him, a mountain lion? he goes, yeah, man, a mountain lion. face to face, eye to eye. and he was like terrified. >> reporter: he had been eye to eye with p-22, so named by the park service. p for puma. number 22 out of 44 they've studied. photographed here with a small camera on a very long stick. p-22 wears a park service tracking collar that sends gps signals on his location.

day because he was under the house. >> he was just laying there trying to snooze, completely just like we woke him from a nap. >> reporter: soon the house was packed with cameras and reporters. p-22 was already a local celebrity because of this national geographic picture taken by a remote camera a mile or two from the house. wildlife experts finally decided to shoo everybody out after the 11:00 news. hoping p-22 might head back into the hills nearby. which he did. >> when did he leave? how did he leave? >> we don't know how. >> they call them ghost cats. >> right. >> there you go. >> reporter: and though they live in the shadows in much of southern california they're never far away. a trail camera caught this one a stone's throw from the rooftops of suburbia.

to, you know, stay elusive and away from us. even us researchers who follow them almost daily, we hardly ever see them. >> jeff sikic is a park service biologist, an expert on big cats who holds something of a record. he's seen and captured p-22 four times now. this time he corners the animal and hits him with a tranquilizer dart. quickly it knocks p-22 out, with his eyes still open. the batteries on his gps collar were running low. replacing them gives sikic and his crew a chance for a checkup. p-22 is healthy. weighing in at 125 pounds. from experience, sikic knows that when the animal comes to it's no threat. the instinct to get away from

sure enough, a groggy p-22 wakes up and stumbles back into the shadows. >> here's the past eight months of where p-22 has traveled. >> reporter: the gps signals from their collars tell sikic and his colleague seth riley where the animals roam. p-22 wanders the hills of griffith park, a small enclave in los angeles frequented by hikers and visitors to the park's famed observatory. >> we haven't, knock on wood, had any major conflicts with him and people, and it shows that even a large carnivore like a mountain lion can live right among people for many years. >> reporter: they think p-22 migrated east across the santa monica mountains for 20 miles or so. perhaps chased out by a bigger male. he somehow crossed the 405 freeway, one of the world's

bel air and beverly hills, and somewhere near the hollywood bowl amphitheater crossed a second busy freeway, the 101, to griffith park. >> p-22 had it great, no competition, no other adult males in griffith park, seemed to be plenty of prey for him. >> reporter: he's been in griffith park for three years now. all alone, loking for love in al out there, which is pretty surprising. i would have bet he would have left looking for a potential mate. >> reporter: if the mating urge overwhelms him, he could take his chances crossing the freeways again to find a female. a very risky business. why not move him? >> usually it doesn't work moving lions. we'd just be moving this animal,

usually results in the death of one of them. >> reporter: and in the verdugo mountains a small range overlooking the san fernando valley, there's another lonely lion. >> i never thought one would actually come through our back yard. and he was right next to our bedroom window. and then he'd continue up this way. >> reporter: nancy vandermay and eric barkolo moved here to be close to wildlife and got their wish in the form of a mountain lion named p-41, who seems to love their back yard deck. he's right out here where we are? >> exactly where we are. >> reporter: he has come to visit at least ten times. triggering security cameras taking both video and still pictures. the area is called cougar canyon. what else? >> here he is just literally made a loop around our house for some reason. >> yeah.

their video scrapbook. >> and let me point out how his paws are on the wood and not on the gravel so he can make as little noise as possible. >> wow. >> they want to be silent at all times. >> reporter: camera technology has revolutionized the way mountain lions and other wild animals are studied. joanna turner is a sound effects editor for universal studios. on her own time she's one of several citizen scientists, as they're called, who put remote cameras up in the wild hoping to get that perfect shot. >> there he is. oh, come on, buddy. >> how do you know where to look? >> we look for tracks and we look for signs of them and we look for deer because that's their food source. >> reporter: to lure the lions into camera range she'll sprinkle catnip, vanilla extract, even men's cologne on a branch, and just like house cats they love it.

but her cameras also catch bobcats, coyotes, foxes and bears. >> you can see the full report on our website, cbsnews.com. the "overnight news" will ?living well? rise above joint discomfort with move free ultra's triple action joint support for improved mobility and flexibility, and 20% better comfort from one tiny, mighty pill... get move free ultra, and enjoy living well. my hygienist said the most random thing. she said i should think of my teeth like an apple. it could be great on the outside not so great on the inside. her advice? use a toothpaste and mouthwash that strengthens both. crest pro-health vanced. it's uniquely formulated with activestrength technology to strengthen teeth inside and is better at strengthening the outside than colgate total. crest toothpaste and mouthwash makes my whole mouth feel amazing. advance to healthier gums and stronger teeth from day one. my check-up was great. mmm... i can't believe it's so delicious. i can't believe it has 40% fewer calories than butter. i can't believe it's made with real, simple ingredients.

industry is coming up craps. mark albert found some big-time casino developers still prepared to roll the dice. >> reporter: casinos have never been more flush than they are right now. >> we went from about 800 employees to 3,000 employees in less than six months. >> reporter: so the demand is there. >> oh, the demand is there. >> reporter: rob norton is president of maryland live, a sprawling casino in the baltimore, maryland suburbs that opened just four years ago. after rounds of expansion it now sells itself as one of the nation's largest gaming, retail and entertainment venues. >> are you going to keep growing? >> we are going to absolutely keep growing. >> reporter: and like a gambler on a winning streak, the casino is plunging ahead. it's just broken ground on a $200 million convention center and hotel. a confident david cordish owns maryland live. is it a bet for you to build this hotel or is it a sure thing? >> it's pretty much a sure thing. >> reporter: cordish is doubling down because he says he only builds casinos near these three

and a major retail magnet. maryland live sits next to arundel mills mall, a 1.6 million-square-foot shopping paradise. you're a bullish man on a lot of things. >> i am bullish. very optimistic. >> reporter: but even an optimist dreads a losing hand. 30 years ago only two states had casinos. now 42 states do. you're running out of room to expand in. >> by and large the united states is running out of good locations. >> reporter: does that mean that at some point casinos will be cannibalizing from each other? >> at some point. it's already happening. >> reporter: on election day new jersey voters will decide whether to amend the constitution to allow casinos beyond atlantic city. the one-time las vegas of the east where the chips are most certainly down. in 2001 the new jersey resort city had 16% of the u.s. commercial casino market.

pennsylvania and maryland let casinos open there. and it's hurting the bottom line. new jersey's casino tax revenues are half what they were ten years ago. meaning less money for senior citizens, the disabled, and economic revitalization programs. while new york's quadrupled, sending a windfall to education. delaware's general fund took a hit as maryland hit the jackpot. with five casinos since 2009 is & a sixth, the mgm at national harbor, opening december 8th. >> basically kind of an arms race. >> reporter: alex bumoginy is an analyst at fitz ratings. even though commercial casino revenue nationwide is up 48% since 2001 to more than $40 billion nationwide, bumoginy says the casino industry is now extremely saturated. >> fortunately, most states at this point already have gaming and have a limited amount of licenses to issue. so we're getting to the point where future development is very limited. >> does that worry you?

ones we're involved in. >> you think you're immune. >> i think we're immune in the locations we've picked. >> reorter: david cordish now has plans for a new live casino in philadelphia. his fifth casino. convinced he's on a roll. do you think there are too many casinos opening? >> actually, no, i don't. i don't feel like there's too many casinos. because you want choice? >> yes. most definitely. >> reporter: andrea hanks came from her fiance 2 1/2 hours north from richmond, virginia to give maryland live a spin. as did betsy bane. she's a shrewd shopper at the slots and vows to check out mgm's brand new mega casino when it opens in national harbor. she told us she'll keep sampling. >> you can try another one.

the holiday shopping season is in full swing, and a lot of people are determined to avoid the malls at all costs. but if you're one of the millions who shop online with your smartphone, you could be putting your personal information at risk. a lot of those phone apps are fake. anna werner has the details. >> i would say for most of my purchai >> reporter: nicole barker likes shopping through her apps but didn't realize they could put her identity at risk. >> it's really scary. you trust those brands when you see them and you just accept or trust that that's who you think you're dealing with. >> reporter: but a company that creates many of those apps for major retailers found some shopping apps for names like dillard's, payless, even christian dior and jimmy choo, weren't real. >> we found there were hundreds of fake apps. hundreds. >> reporter: chris mason from

and you get rid of that provider, you'll find them show up in a different form of a new name, new credentials. for every one you take down there's two that come up. >> it's collecting a lot of data. >> reporter: gary milevsky with cyber security firm snoop wall says it's all about criminals getting hold of your private information. >> some of these apps, these counterfeit apps, are so good they give you a complete shopping cart experience. everything through the "congratulations, here's your order number, it's on its way." and then you never get the goods. >> reporter: but he points to something even more disturbing, with super popular emoji keyboard apps. these keyboards replace the one on your phone giving you an endless supply of emoticons for every occasion. but he says many can also gain access to your contacts, text messages, possibly even passwords and send your private information overseas. >> these are all developed by employees of companies in china. >> so what do you think somebody in china is doing with all that

version of the nsa is using these kinds of tools to collect a lot of information on people overseas. and time will tell. >> we don't know, do we? >> we don't know. >> reporter: google told us it scans apps for potentially malicious code as well as spammy developer accounts and they have a separate tool for android devices to verify apps. apple told us they provide notice on all keyboard apps about the fact these apps can have access to what you type. except for passwords, which apple says can only be typed in using the regular keyboard. but milevsky says better to avoid emoji keyboards entirely, especially if they're free. news to nicole barker. >> i do have an emoji keyboard. as do most of my friends. that really gets me scared, makes me realize i probably should take that off my phone. >> and that's the "overnight

the president-elect already on the job. with the deal that saved hundreds of them. >> companies are not going to leave the united states anymore without consequences. president-elect on donald trump shifting positions on immigration and prosecuting hillary clinton. >> did he just say those things to get elected? a so-called magical treatment for the anxiety and depression that come with cancer. >> from that moment the fear was gone. and a new over-the-top light

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." the trump-pence administration takes office in 49 days, and we are about to hear from two key players. we have interviews with vice president-elect mike pence and the speaker of the house, paul ryan. but first, donald trump has made his first public appearance since he was elected more than three weeks ago. he appeared at a furnace manufacturer in indiana that was sending more than 2,000 jobs to mr. trump's intervention and tax incentives from the state have persuaded the carrier corporation to send only 1,300 jobs south of the border, saving 800. major garrett has the story. >> they say it's not presidential to call up these massive leaders of business. i think it's very presidential. >> reporter: president-elect donald trump called the ceo of carrier's parent company, united technologies, directly to

indiana. >> companies are not going to leave the united states anymore without consequences. not going to happen. >> reporter: during the campaign trump threatened to slap import tariffs on companies that send jobs overseas. but in this case the state of indiana provided the company $7 million in tax incentives, something states often do to keep or attract businesses. and mr. trump promised lower corporate taxes and fewer regulations. the publicity bang is larger than the national economic labor force of 159 million. but for carrier workers like bryan dyson the reaction was emotional and appreciative. >> crying. relieved. christmas coming, you know. everybody's head's up. >> reporter: dawn kinnard said it was a promise kept. >> i'm very thankful that he did follow through because he didn't have to. he could have just said that and walked away. but he really did follow through. >> reporter: all this is a stark contrast to the reaction when

[ yelling ] not far from the carrier plant manufacturer rexnord plans to move 300 jobs to mexico. brian reed is an assembler. >> devastated. i can't put it in words. i mean, the 300 people i work with, things just went through my mind, and it just -- it's just devastating. >> reporter: reed said he doesn't feel left behind. >> with what mr. trump did, it the american working class. i don't know that personally it will affect my factory. >> reporter: at rallies during the campaign then candidate trump often said he and populist democrat bernie sanders agreed on trade and protecting u.s. manufacturing jobs. but scott, sanders is very critical of this carrier deal, arguing it will incentivize other corporations to threaten to move jobs overseas to extract tax breaks and other government

that the trump transition team is getting closer waive that congress would have to intervene. the trump transition team has been told by congressional leaders they would do that. >> major gartd reporting for us tonight. major, thank you. well, that deal in indiana was done with the help of the governor of indiana, who is also the vice president-elect.

today, and we asked him what mr. trump meant by consequences for companies that moved jobs overseas. >> the president-elect's made it very clear that when companies shutter factories and move them out of this country in the hopes of being able to build their products and ship them right back into the united states that we're going to have the kind of trade deals that have consequences for enterprises like that and we're going to have the kind of trade that puts american jobs and american workers first. >> when mr. trumpks consequences, are we talking about punitive taxes? >> i think -- everything is really on the table as we negotiate trade deals going forward, as we renegotiate the north american free trade agreement. i think what the american people can anticipate, that the trump administration is going to roll our sleeves up and we're going to drive a hard bargain. >> now, carrier tells us that you have saved 800 jobs that were headed to mexico. how did you do it? >> he picked up the phone.

parent company and just asked them to reconsider their decision to move jobs to mexico from here in the state of indiana. >> but not to put too fine a point on it, sir, 1,300 jobs are still going to mexico. and i wonder, why were you not able to save those? >> this change? their business policies was set into motion many months before he even secured the nomination. but the fact that carrier was set at this factory to go to than 1,100 good-paying jobs here in the state of indiana with the opportunity for that to grow i think is welcome news. >> just since the election president-elect trump has reversed himself on prosecuting hillary clinton and on deporting 11 million illegal immigrants in this country. did he just say those things to get elected? did he never intend to do them? >> i promise you, as we were

and senate, we're going to go straight to work after this congress convenes and this administration takes office. >> the speaker of the house told us today that when it comes to deporting 11 million illegal immigrants it's not going to happen and he won't fund it. >> well, i -- i will tell you that the policies that the president-elect outlined in his speech in arizona will be the policies that we advance. i'm very confident that we'll have broad-based support in the congress for what the president-elect course of his campaign and we're going to work every day to make sure that we advance those policies and end illegal immigration once and for all. >> vice president-elect mike pence, also governor of indiana until january the 20th, we thank you very much for your time. you made a big difference for about 800 families in your home state there. thank you very much again. >> thank you, scott. and we have more of the pence interview on cbsnews.com

the repeal of obamacare will be the first bill taken up by the new congress. that's according to the speaker of the house. in an interview for "60 minutes" paul ryan told us that repeal will be immediate but a replacement is months, even years away. no one, he said, will lose we met the speaker at the capitol today, and we asked him about his rocky relationship with mr. trump. >> you called donald trump a racist. >> no, i didn't. i said his comment was. >> uh-huh. i'm not sure there's a great deal of daylight between those two definitions. but he definitely called you ineffective and disloyal. have you patched it up?% >> yeah, we have. we're fine. we're not looking back. we're looking forward.

day, and it's not about looking forward -- back in the past. that's behind us. we're way beyond that. >> did you believe he could be nominated? really. >> yeah, no, i didn't see this one coming. he knows that. donald trump's a very -- he was a very not conventional candidate. he's going to be an unconventional president. what i like about it in my, like i said, almost daily conversations is he's just a get things done kind of guy. >> have you told him being president is not being ceo of the united stes have a say? >> oh, we've talked about that extensively. we've talked about the constitution, article one in the constitution, the separation of powers. he feels very strongly, actually, that under president obama's watch he stripped a lot of power away from the constitution, away from the legislative branch of government, and we want to reset the balance of power so that people and the constitution are rightfully restored. >> the speaker of the house on his plans for sweeping tax

enforcement. that's this sunday on "60 minutes." ryan's home state of wisconsin today began recounting but the recounts there and possibly in michigan and pennsylvania are not expected to change the outcome of the presidential race. donald trump won with 306 electoral votes, even though hillary clinton got nearly 2.5 million more popular votes. that is nearly a 2% margin and is the largest by any candidate in on to lose the election. tonight in syria, families are running for their lives to escape aleppo. once a home to a million people. syrian government forces, backed by russia, are obliterating neighborhoods held by rebels. and today debora patta got a rare look. >> reporter: for the tens of thousands of civilians who fled rebel-held aleppo it must have

deserted them. huddling under blankets for warmth, they sleep cheek to cheek in makeshift shelters. for many this is their first meal in days. the united nations estimates that 200,000 are still inside eastern aleppo, trapped between the syrian army and rebel fighters, the relentless shelling continues. the u.n. has demanded a pause in the fighting to allow for the evacuation of the sick and injured and the delivery of food but the syrian government has answered with silence. its main backer, russia, talks about opening humanitarian corridors, but so far that's all it is, talk. the government's five-month siege has left food and medical supplies dangerously low, while hospitals have been blown to pieces. as the rebel territory shrinks under the advance of the syrian military, desperate civilians

um muneer spent six hours trying to escape. "my son and i had no choice but to leave," she said, "even if we had to walk all the way." as miserable as it is for those who made it out to safety, it's far worse for those who said behind. we can tell you, scott, that since we arrived in aleppo the sound of shelling has not let up. >> debora patta in the war zone for us tonight. debora, thank you. > the tennessee wildfires climbed to 10. 80 are injured and many are missing. demarco morgan is in the great smoky mountains. >> reporter: with dozens of leads to track down, authorities here continue to search for those who have been reporting missing. sevier county mayor larry watters. >> we're concluding the rescue probably today, and we're moving tomorrow into the recovery. >> reporter: this board at an american red cross shelter is covered with the names of those
