You're in Mountain Lion Country

       Mountain Lions have always lived here in the foothills, but the more we human encroach upon their habitat, the more encounters we will have, even though they avoid humans like the plague.

       Two reports have been made in the last month, according to Angels Camp Police, about sightings of Mountain Lions. They mainly go after deer, but will kill and eat goats if you put them in their back yard.

    If you insist on having goats in Mountain Lion country, you should at least bring them into a barn and lock them up at night.
