Bath time for these black bears in the borderlands! Our borderlands to the south make up one of the biggest ecosystem complexes in North America, with some of the least populated areas and most important wildlife habitats remaining on the continent. The region is host to a diverse array of threatened, endangered and rare species — including Sonoran pronghorns, lesser long-nosed bats, Quino checkerspot butterflies, cactus ferruginous pygmy owls, and larger predators like jaguars, Mexican gray wolves and ocelots — and it contains millions of acres of public lands. This is just a brief glimpse of the spectacular wildlife that lives in these wildlands and the lives they live. 📹 by the Center's peccary_not_pig [Video description: A family of three black bears splash around in a stream in the forest near Arizona's borderlands.] #borderlands #blackbears #wildlife #trailcamera #arizona
