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.

I saw a bobcat walking along the fire trail. When it saw me, it walked off the side of the trail and down into the woods. Time was about 1 PM

It has been hanging around for at least a week or more. There use to be a lot of ground squirrels. Not so much. Think they are eating them. We look at open space and this is where we have seen the bobcat.

Another Fall afternoon visit from a Bobcat along a trail used by a lot of the wildlife in the area! In this series of videos (4) the Bobcat travels along the trail (part of Southwood Valley) from Southwest to Northeast. The Bobcat must have finished work early and is heading home?

Saw this bobcat walking alongside Tennessee Valley coastline trail - it was totally unconcerned about the group of 5 humans behind it. Walked near it for about 2-3 minutes and saw it lunge for a pack of small birds in low trailside brush.
Was worried it may have been rabid or had an illness given it didn’t care about proximity to humans but it seemed to be moving normally and, other than ignoring us, it wasn’t showing any obviously abnormal behaviors.
