California Carnivores Program is Expanding to...Bobcats!

We’re excited to share an important update from our California Carnivores Program! As part of their mission to conserve California’s native carnivores through science and research, their research program is expanding to include bobcats in their study portfolio. With approval for their CDFW Scientific Collecting Permit, the team will be able to better understand bobcat ecology, health, their role in California ecosystems, and the threats they face.
 
Science-based conservation starts with knowledge, and we’re proud to take this next step toward protecting native wildlife. Stay tuned for updates from the field!
