Mountain Lion:
Mountain lions are important members of the natural community and may be found in this area. Although these animals are seldom seen, they can be unpredictable and have been known, on rare occasion, to attack humans.
It is best to hike with another person and keep children close. If you should encounter a mountain lion, wave your arms overhead and make plenty of noise to frighten it away. Report any wildlife that displays aggressive behavior of does not retreat when confronted by loud or assertive human actions to Park Headquarters or to the Department of Fish and Game.
Your State Park is a natural environment, set aside for your enjoyment and for the preservation of native plants and animals. On occasion, you may be fortunate enough to experience a brief encounter with some wildlife. By exercising due caution, these encounters can be an exciting and memorable adventure. |
