Summary

Description

Our biologists recently ear-tagged these adorable 3-4-week-old kittens as part of our nearly 20-year-long study of how urbanization has affected bobcats in the Santa Monica Mountains and surrounding area. We've been tracking the mom, B255, since 2010 and tagged her kittens while she was away from the den.

Even with the cluster of data points from mom's GPS collar, finding a bobcat den is like finding a needle in a haystack. This den was nestled into the hillside coastal sage scrub in an area near Oak Park in the Simi Hills.
