Since March 2022, officials said, nine mountain lions have died by vehicle strikes, six of them radio-collared.
P-81 is the 34th mountain lion, and the 13th radio-collared cat, to die from road mortality since 2002, according to recreation area officials.
"We initially captured him in western Santa Monica Mountains in March 2020," officials said. "He was significant in our mountain lion study due to his physical abnormalities -- a kinked tail where the end is shaped like the letter `L' and only one descended testicle." The wildlife experts said the abnormalities "were the first physical evidence of potential inbreeding depression due to lack of genetic diversity since we began studying mountain lions in 2002, increasing the urgency of understanding, maintaining and increasing connectivity for wildlife in the region."The massive project is set to protect the wildlife in the Santa Monica mountains.
The Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing over the Ventura Freeway is under construction in the Agoura Hills area, and is seen as a "major and critical step" in enabling the big cats and other wildlife to expand their territories -- and do so safely, without having to cross major roads. The landscaped crossing will span 10 lanes of the 101 Freeway in Liberty Canyon when completed in 2025, and aims to provide a connection between the small population of mountain lions in the Santa Monica Mountains and the larger and genetically diverse populations to the north.that I have read and agree
