About this episode

It’s hiking season, which means more people are out on the trails and potentially interacting with wildlife. That has us thinking about last year’s mountain lion attack on the popular Pipeline Trail in Millcreek Canyon. You’ve probably hiked there before, too! Host Ali Vallarta talks with Faith Heaton Jolley with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources about what to do if you’re ever face to face with a cougar.


This episode originally aired on Sept. 29, 2022.
