We report the near-infrared pump-probe ultrafast response of the ferromagnetic candidate Weyl semimetal EuCd₂As₂. A non-pulsewidth limited rise dynamic is followed by two distinct decay processes – a sub-picosecond decay attributed to electron-phonon relaxation and a several picosecond long process which stems from demagnetization of the in-plane magnetic moment. Exponential fits of the decay processes down to 6 K reveal subtle sensitivity to the long-range magnetic ordering. Surprisingly, the strongest effects take place near 80 K despite negligible changes in ARPES. Time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements will provide further insight into this critical temperature scale.
