Cougars:
Ensure that you have read the posted Cougar Alert - it contains information that you need to know. Report all cougar sightings, a detailed description of the animal, and sign of tracks or scat to parks staff immediately.

Bears: Keep a Bare Campsite to keep bears and people safe. Bear-proof lockers are in place at many campsites hang your food and garbage properly in all other areas.

Wolves: Keep a clean campsite so wolves do not scavenge food. Report all sightings immediately.
