The mountain lion population has increased in our area, every county park in our area has mountain lion warning signs posted.

20 whole people killed in last 120 years. Wow! Not a lot, eh. Sighting have increased but there hasn't been attack in your area since 2014. Attacks are not common.

Every trailhead I leave has bear warning and cougar signs. I don't remember the last time an attack of either happened and I have seen both on the trail in the last 12 months.

Your driving is more likely to hurt or kill someone than a mountain lion.
