San Jose Carnivore Tour

This tour offers a rare chance to find many of our local carnivore species. We go after mountain lions, bobcats, gray foxes, coyotes, and great horned owls with a high success rate. Please note we only take private groups on these tours because of how much tracking is involved. We use a variety of different methods to find our target animals.

Inquire for prices.
