These bears are adorable and funny, and they look like they're having so much fun! We have been steadily going through all our game camera footage from the summer, which helps us track and better understand wildlife in the Applegate Siskiyous!

Although touted by BLM as a "salvage" timber sale, the Thom Bone Timber Sale targets living, green forests designated as Late Successional Reserves, set aside as habitat for the northern spotted owl. Thom Bone is slated to be auctioned by the BLM on December 18 at the BLM office in Medford, Oregon.

In the Applegate watershed and on the Siskiyou Crest, public land grazing has devastating impacts to wet meadows, riparian areas, rare plants, water quality, drinking water, pollinator habitat, and also creates a lot of erosion and competition with wildlife for forage.
