We saw more than ten species of wild mammal on the recent Malheur trip, not all in Harney County.  Here are some images:

Loping “antelope” which is actually a pronghorn, not a true antelope. This one was in Lake County’s Christmas Valley sagebrush.

Pair of Belding’s ground squirrels eating one of my hand-outs at Collier State Park, Klamath County.

Pygmy rabbit at Malheur Field Station.

Marmots at Page Springs Campground.
