Mammal Photographs Needed from Southern California or nearby

Brad Blood is preparing a book on the terrestrial mammals of southern California and the eastern & southern Sierra Nevada. He is looking for photographs he can use of these species, preferably from California, or somewhere close by (though this is not a hard and fast requirement).

He is not taking a profit off the book, but instead is donating my share of the profits to the American Society of Mammalogists. So if you have commercial terms, please let him know at bblood@psomas.com
