We have a friend who told us of a place in San Timoteo Canyon, near Redlands, where we could find lots of wild burros. We drove there on a late afternoon recently and I saw more than I've seen before right here locally.
Several had babies and I found a couple trying to make some more. We also parked between some up on a hill and the main group and one of them on the hill made a huge racked braying about its predicament. They eventually meandered down the hill and walked around us.
The stripe that goes from the base of the mane down the side is so interesting. It makes them very distinct. I'd like to know more about that. I love the babies.
