Mountain Lion Sighting in Solano County

  • On May 22, authorities located and safely captured a young female cougar near a cul-de-sac in a community on southern Vancouver Island.
  • The sighting followed previous cougar reports, with the animal reportedly frequenting Rob Clark's property for about two weeks and jumping over an 8-foot fence.
  • Rob Clark received a call from his son who had just returned from delivering newspapers and alerted him to the cougar’s presence, prompting Clark to contact police before arriving home.
  • Clark described the encounter as "exciting, to say the least," and local resident Jodie Siverns stressed vigilance by urging people to stay alert, especially when walking pets, and to report sightings by calling 1-877-952-7277.
  • The event underscores the importance of safe coexistence with wildlife, especially with increased cougar activity near trails and wooded areas during warmer weather.
