    Wednesday, April 14, 2021 – 9:00 AM CONSENT Agenda Item 9 – Mountain Lion

    Under this agenda item the Commission will consider granting a Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) request for a six-month extension to deliver its one-year status review report on the petition to list six populations of mountain lion as threatened under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA).

    To provide some background, in June 2019, the Commission received a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity and the Mountain Lion Foundation to list six populations identified as the southern California/central coast evolutionarily significant unit (ESU) of mountain lion as threatened under CESA. In April 2020, the Commission determined that the petition provided sufficient information to indicate that the petitioned action may be warranted and established populations of mountain lions in those ESUs as a protected, candidate species. Pursuant to California Fish and Game Code (FGC), DFW has one year to complete a status review from the date of notice, unless the Commission grants an extension of time.

    At this meeting, the Commission will consider DFW’s request for a six month extension to further analyze and evaluate the available science, to undergo the peer review process, and to complete its status review. Note that the Commission must receive the DFW status review report before they can make a final listing decision.
