Protect California Mountain Lions: Give Them a Wildlife Crossing!

Protect California Mountain Lions: Give Them a Wildlife Crossing!

The Issue

P22 is a plucky young mountain lion who has become affectionately known as the “Hollywood Lion”.

When he journeyed from his home in the Santa Monica Mountains to find new territory—and ultimately, a mate—he somehow made it across two of America’s busiest eight-lane freeways.

He was very, very lucky. But most wildlife aren’t.

Many mountain lions and other wildlife never made it as far as P22 did. They were struck and killed by vehicles.

You can help mountain lions and other wildlife living in the hills near Los Angeles by providing safe passage between remaining protected habitat areas.

There is widespread support to create a wildlife crossing where the 101 freeway crosses an undeveloped canyon that connects two vital wildlife habitat areas.

But it won’t get built without people like you raising your voices and urging the United States Department of Transportation to give wildlife like P-22 safe crossing through Liberty Canyon.

Help mountain lions and other wildlife who make their home in the Santa Monica Mountains—urge the U.S. Department of Transportation to support the creation of a wildlife crossing at Liberty Canyon.
