Mountain Lions in Your Community

In light of the recent mountain lion attacks in Southern California, the Wildlife Health Center wants to ensure that the press and public have access to up-to-date, accurate information.   The Wildlife Health Center at UC Davis has become the hub for mountain lion research and information for California communities and policymakers.  

In this "On-Line Info Packet," we connect you with the latest reports of our research about mountain lions living among people in Southern California.   We also provide you with links to the best available sites that will answer any other questions you might have about this elusive cat.

Our research is funded by public agency and contributions from concerned community members. Our Donor page (link to that page) will provide you contact information on how you can support our programs.
