Two mountain lions/cougars were seen crossing Lewis and Clark this morning (7/22/2025) and heading up the mountain. Please keep your family and furry friends safe.

Jess Hofberger, BSR President, talked with DWR yesterday (7/6/2023) and they asked us to post the following information.

1. Please keep all trash inside or secured in an inaccessible location.
2. Please remove sweet or fatty birdseed at night or completely for the next few weeks
3. Be bear-aware. See the following website for more information: https://www.wildawareutah.org/

DWR believes that any bear in the area will leave in the next couple weeks, if their “easy” food sources are removed. Please report bear sightings at 801.538.4700, only in the following circumstances:

1. If a bear is found or seen on your deck.
2. If a bear does NOT move off after seeing people.
3. If a bear advances towards people.

If the issue doesn’t resolve itself in the next couple weeks, the situation will be reevaluated.
