While the number of people crossing the border increased exponentially since Trump’s wall went up a new study reveals an 86% reduction in wildlife crossings. At well over $20 million a mile, Trump’s wall is both a wastefully expensive tactical failure & an ecological disaster.

One of the cutest things I’ve ever found on my remote cameras in the Arizona borderlands is this coati mama and her coati kittens at a shallow creek in the Chiricahua mountains.

Just 90 seconds of one of the most remote, most magical areas I’ve had the opportunity to explore: the Northern Jaguar Reserve in Sonora Mexico.

Last week I checked a handful of trail cameras in a few Sky Islands in southern Arizona & was dumbfounded to find a beautiful wild ocelot on one of them. For the safety of this endangered & elegant cat I won’t be disclosing the location at this time.

For 2 years I watched a borderlands black bear cub grow up on 4 of my remote wildlife cameras. I named the cub Monsoon after watching videos of it relishing swims in monsoon pools. Monsoon is now roaming solo. The borderlands are wild and wonderful.

Breaking: Center for Biological Diversity is calling on AZ Game & Fish Commission to ban dog pack hunting for mountain lions, bears, coati & other wildlife. Currently hunters use GPS-collared dogs to track wildlife for miles via smart phone apps & satellites, putting jaguars & ocelots at risk.

Yesterday the US Supreme Court gutted the Clean Water Act. The new rule excludes ephemeral waters, many springs and wetlands. For AZ & the Southwest this means a 90-95% reduction in protections for waters and the people and wildlife that rely on them. 🤬

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.

To mine Oak Flat, Resolution Copper will use 250 billion gallons of desert water over the life of the project. That’s 17 million gallons a day, 365 days a year for 40 years, or the equivalent of a 12,700 mile river stretching halfway across the earth.

For 18 months I watched this bear cub grow up in the U.S-Mex. borderlands on remote cameras. I named the cub after the summer rains that bless the Sonoran Desert. Monsoon navigates an unbelievably biodiverse world being cut in half by new border walls.

Jaguar habitat in the U.S. Southwest is beautiful. I got this footage while on a trip with renowned Argentinian biologist Sebastián Di Martino, conservation director of ReWilding Argentina. Sebastián was mesmerized by the rugged and expansive wildlands available to jaguars here.
