Hard to believe, but the mountains above Tucson—especially the Catalina range—once had grizzly bears moving through them.

Before Arizona was developed, these bears traveled mountain ranges, riverbeds, and desert foothills.

By the early 1900s they were hunted out, and the last confirmed grizzly in Arizona was killed in 1936 on Escudilla Mountain.

Something to work on when I get home to Arizona 🌵🌞
