The Cougar Conservancy, in partnership with the National Wildlife Federation’s #SaveLACougars campaign, has created the first ever docent-led tour program for the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing.
The program will build a bridge between the Santa Monica Mountains community, visitors, and area wildlife by engaging and empowering people with information about the importance of coexisting with cougars and a greater understanding of all of the benefits that the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing will bring. Construction began in the summer of 2022, and when completed, the crossing will be largest of its kind in the world and a global model for urban wildlife conservation.
Guided Tours
The guided hikes will give members of the public an opportunity to experience the project up-close and learn more about how the crossing will ensure that local wildlife populations thrive into the future. Participants will also have access to factual information about human-wildlife interactions including effective non-lethal strategies that can be used to coexist with cougars and other animal species while living and recreating in or near wild spaces.
We’re tremendously proud to be part of an effort that will engage the public with the crossing and connect them to the landscape and wildlife that lives there, in a meaningful way.
