The top image shows California Gulch flowing into Sonora, Mex. This is one of the last homes for the endangered Sonoran chub, a fish clinging to survival. But in the fall of 2024, this sanctuary was obliterated. The bottom image shows the aftermath, a stark and lifeless reminder of what was lost.

Earlier this year a beautiful and rare wild ocelot appeared on one of my trail cameras in a Sky Island south of Tucson, Ariz. Take a look. This cat likely crossed the U.S-Mexico border west of Nogales sometime in early 2024 and has traveled great distances in the U.S.

Border wall construction in southern Arizona's Pajarito Mts 4 years ago decimated the Mariposa Canyon watershed as well as jaguar & Mexican spotted owl critical habitat. The area remains in ruin today. Work crews continue to try to stabilize the site & the wall from collapse. The wall is useless.
