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.

Appears to be limping across our driveway on cam video. But Ring motion alarms woke us and it was sleeping in our bushes right outside our window for at least 1hr. Licking its paw. Then went down our north wall and back up. Then left around 5:18am to the north side of our house.
