IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Preservation MLF has successfully presented and supported a CESA petition to protect Californias most vulnerable populations of mountain lions. As a part of this process, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife has reviewed and adjusted their statewide depredation policies to first require that the owner of pets or livestock take steps to protect their animals before they will issue a permit to kill a mountain lion.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Outreach and Communication MLF has reached out in person, via online media and interactive video workshops and presentations in this time of Covid isolation. Topics covered include coexistence, regenerative farming, safety, biology and the effects of climate change. We have also partnered with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife on an informational brochure about mountain lions. Special webinars and town halls were presented in areas of Washington State where lion depredations had occurred, teaching and encouraging stronger animal husbandry and non-lethal management of the cougars.
