SARATOGA (KRON)— A Saratoga resident caught surveillance video of a big cat near his Saratoga home Tuesday morning.
The big cat was caught on camera at 6:30 a.m at a home on Arrowhead Lane near the Fremont Older Open Space Preserve.
Uday Rau says his wife heard something in their vineyard that morning before taking their child to school.
His wife checked their home security system and discovered the big cat.
It is unclear if it was a bobcat or a mountain lion, but Rau estimates that it is between 40 to 50 pounds.
Rau called the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office West Valley Patrol Division, but the office told them there’s not much they can do unless they attack an animal or a human.
