As you’ll see, the mamma bear has an injured leg. It’s no telling what happened, but either way, she must have been in pain. Her cub even looks troubled about it. This was captured a few weeks ago, and since then, none of the five cameras in that canyon saw here again. I’m hoping she moved further up the mountains to cooler temps, water, and more food.

Desert Tortoise
A couple months ago, I set a trail camera at the entrance of a desert tortoise den. The tortoise came and when a few times, often during the heat of the day. Based on her morphology, she’s likely a female. She shares her den with a rock squirrel and a packrat.
