What to do if you find a captured bobcat or coyote?
If the animal notices you, then you are too close. Your presence can stress captured animals and increase the risk of capture complications.
All capture devices are fitted with transmitters that immediately notify biologists when an animal is captured. Staff are likely already on their way.
If you have any concerns, contact EAFB Environmental Management and tell them where you saw the captured animal.
Are my pets safe?
To keep your pet safe always keep them leashed in trapping areas. Loose pets can disrupt the study or, if not careful, end up in a capture devise. Look for the sign below to indicate whether you are in a trapping area.
