Santa Cruz police are keeping watch on a mountain lion that is trapped in an aqueduct off of May Avenue near Ocean Street in downtown Santa Cruz.
The big cat was first spotted at about 7:30 this morning, behind a medical facility on Water Street. Police are awaiting the arrival of a University of California Santa Cruz wildlife expert to assess the situation.

Despite the public’s perception of declining Mountain Lion populations in California, they are quite numerous and for the most part have lost their fear of humans. I see Mountain Lions on a semi regular basis.

Does anybody wonder about why this cat was attracted to the back of a medical facility and what kind of “facility” it is???
