Walking 9+ miles of suppression lines across the Carrizo Plain National Monument resulted in finding this trophy Tule Elk deadhead. Found “in the black” fire footprint. Don’t know how many years is was there, but now fully visible with all the grass, forbs, and shrubs gone. 🌎🌿🍁💀🔥

In the face of anti-science politics, silence is not without cost
