LARGE COUGAR SIGHTING IN THREE RIVERS
Released: March 13, 2020
A large cougar has been sighted in Big Canyon the last several
days and on Yucca Flats this morning.

Please Read the Attached Notices.

IF YOU ENCOUNTER A COUGAR…STOP. Never approach a cougar at any time for any reason.

STAY CALM Face the cougar and do not turn your back towards it. Do not run. Running encourages it to chase.

APPEAR LARGE Make yourself look large. Do not bend over or crouch down. Raise your hands. Hold your coat open.

FIGHT BACK Fight back if attacked.

MAKE NOISE Make noise while hiking or walking to reduce the chance of surprising the cougar.

KEEP CHILDREN CLOSE Always keep children close by and in sight.

AVOID WALKING ALONE
