National Park Service biologists recently ear-tagged kittens as part of their nearly 20-year-long study on how urbanization has affected bobcats in the Santa Monica Mountains in California. This is B327, a 3 to 4-week old baby bobcat. Biologists have been tracking the mom, B255, since 2010 and tagged her kittens while she was away from the den.
The ear tags will help identify the cats in remote camera images.Image credit: National Park Service
