PET REGULATIONS IN JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK
Many people travel and vacation with their pets while visiting Joshua Tree National Park. But be forewarned there are some regulations pet owners must follow. Park Ranger Pam Tripp has more...
We feed and love them. Pets may be man’s best friend; however, they are not the best friend of the wild. They can become prey to wildlife and are vulnerable to prickly plants and desert environments. Our furry companion can also be a predator, and though they behave at home, their hunting instincts will be elevated in the wilderness. They exert pressure on many species and cause wildlife to expend energy that could mean the difference between life and death. Stop in at any visitor center for other options on where to walk your pet within the park. And please remember: Pets are not allowed on any trails or in wilderness areas. They must be on a lease longer than six feet at all times, and may not be unattended. Pets must be within 100 feet of a campground, roadside or picnic area. While recognizing that visitors often bring their pets to the park, following these simple rules will make a visit better for all park residents.
