A mountain lion entered a California school on Wednesday morning and was safely confined in a classroom, authorities said.
All students and staff at Pescadero high school in the town of Pescadero were safe, the San Mateo county sheriff’s office said in a social media post.
“Staff and Deputies have been able to isolate the puma to a classroom and there is no immediate threat,” the post said.
The USFish and Wildlife Service was notified to come to the school and remove the cougar.
Pescadero is small coastal town about 35 miles (56km) south of San Francisco.
