Puma & Bobcat Sightings Map
While many people are confident they've seen a puma, not all of these sightings are accurate. The map below includes both confirmed and unverified puma sightings in the larger San Francisco Bay region (and beyond) since 2004.
Over time, this will help us evaluate problem areas, movement barriers for wildlife, and potential for human-puma conflict.

collared. so it's a different lion than i've seen on the cameras for the past month. if you want, i can share the other photos/videos of the other uncollared sightings. how do i find out which cat this is? is there a map which shows the paths/traces of the collared cats?
i also uploaded a still photo of a non-collared cat at the top of my driveway on 10/18/23 and uncollared at 10/4/23

This bobcat crossed the pasture using the same route that the coyotes usually do. It saw me and froze, then kept going slowly. Then it stopped under some brush, turned around, and sat/lay down to watch me. I was able to take this photo. It stayed in this spot for 5 minutes, then continued on its way.
