• Mountain Lion • SYLMAR - Wildlife Warning •

Last night a large Mountain Lion was captured on video in the neighborhood of the Oakridge Mobile Home Park. (Foothill Blvd. & Glenoaks Blvd.) Sadly it had taken the life of one of the resident's dogs. (Our heart goes out to the family and owners of Gigi)

Sylmar neighbors,

 As we know living in this wonderful community, we are cohabitating with an abundance of wildlife. Coyotes, raccoons, opossums, the occasional bear, and lately a fairly large mountain lion. (Perhaps a couple of them.)

Safety is always the priority!

 Safety for ourselves, our families, our pets, the community, and of course safety for these wild animals.

Please use the following information to help provide education and safety for all of Sylmar and its occupants.

Thank you,

Kurt Cabrera-Miller

President,

Sylmar Neighborhood Council
