The Office of Risk Management would like to make you aware of a safety concern at the San Bernardino Campus. A bird has been observed dive-bombing adjacent to the Performing Arts building. More than one person has been attacked by a hawk or falcon as they walk through this area. Although local and regional agencies have been contacted, they are unable to remove the raptor as it is protected under federal regulations.

The safety and well-being of our campus community are of utmost importance to us. While we are actively working with campus and community partners to address the hazard to pedestrians, we want to ensure that everyone walking in the area is aware of the situation and takes necessary precautions.

Here are a few safety awareness guidelines to keep in mind:

  • Know the Time: Most dive-bombing reports received by Risk Management have been of sightings or events occurring between late afternoons, after 4:00 p.m.
  • Know the Duration: During nesting season (January – August) several types of raptors have a history of aggression towards humans. It can take up to 8 weeks for an egg to hatch and a young bird to leave the nest.
  • Be Vigilant: When near the Performance Art Area, stay attentive to your surroundings and watch out for the raptor's presence.
  • Maintain Distance: It is important to give the bird a wide berth. If you spot the raptor, avoid approaching it or engaging in any behavior that may provoke it.
  • Use Protective Measures: If possible, wear a hat or carry an umbrella to provide some extra protection from the bird's potential attacks.
  • Report Sightings: If you observe the raptor threatening humans or other animals, please report immediately to the University Police Department. If you witness a sighting, please report to UPD after-hours by calling (909) 537-7777, or Environmental Health & Safety Monday-Thursday 7:00 a.m. -5:30 p.m. at [email protected] or (909) 537-5179.

We understand that encountering a dive-bombing raptor can be distressing, but we want to assure you that we are actively addressing this issue within the confines of federal regulations protecting the bird. In the meantime, we appreciate your understanding and cooperation in taking necessary precautions for your safety. We will continue to keep you updated on any developments regarding this matter.

For more information about animals on campus please refer to the policy. Thank you for your attention and commitment to maintaining a safe campus environment.

Sincerely,-
