El Paso County Parks and Services has recently posted a notice that there is a wild animal on the prowl in the Fox Run Park area. It has been seen wandering a short distance from many of the trails, looking for food wherever it can. The park managers would like someone to find the animal’s den so that a careful watch can be kept on the animal and its regular whereabouts.

Here are the places where the animal has been seen, in order of when sightings began a few weeks ago to the present day:

-Stella & Roller Coaster
