A bobcat was photographed on the Griffith Park trail overlooking the 134 Freeway.

The photo was taken by Steve Winter, who shot the image as a way to raise awareness and support for the Santa Monica Mountain Fund. He said he hopes the photos will help with a fundraiser for a wildlife overpass.

Winter said the goal is to try and have a wildlife overpass built by Liberty Canyon over the 101 so that the wild animals can live more freely, especially cougars.
