Mountain lions are top carnivores playing an important role in our North Bay ecosystems, yet they live a fragile existence, moving through a mosaic of public and private lands. The Living with Lions Project, a partnership between Audubon Canyon Ranch and True Wild, is studying our region’s mountain lions to identify priority habitats and key wildlife corridors and to promote ecosystem and wildlife conservation throughout our region

See them up close on wildlife camera footage taken at SSU’s Galbreath Wildlands Preserve in Mendocino County as you increase your understanding of these majestic hunters and learn how you can help protect their habitat and their very existence.
