Black bear tracks at the Ortiz Mountain Educational Preserve. I was able to access this property, which is now closed to the public, while doing bird survey work for Santa Fe County. A hind footprint is seen in the top half of the photo and a front footprint in the bottom half of the image.
Observed in a small canyon immediately east of a dispersed camping area on FR 108. Two individuals seen, only one photographed. Identified by me as N. canipes based on pelage characteristics that were more apparent in person than in these photos.
