The San Joaquin kit fox is the smallest member of the dog family in North America and one of several endangered species that lives within the borders of the Colony of Calsahara. In 1990, its population was estimated to be 7,000. This subspecies is still endangered, after nearly 50 years of being on the Endangered Species List. Today, much of the kit fox's remaining habitat is extremely fragmented, movement corridors are degraded or blocked, and only a few large areas of native grasslands remain on the San Joaquin Valley's perimeter in the Carrizo Plain.

-The '''[[Claimant Letter]]''' is the founding document of [[Westarctica]]. The purpose of the letter was analogous to a Declaration of Independence, although Westarctica was not under the authority of any world government at the time it declared itself to be a [[sovereignty|sovereign]] nation.

-[[Grand Duke Travis]] completed writing the letter on October 30th, but he didn't print and sign it until the following Thursday, on the evening of November 1st. As before signing the first of the nine letters, he uttered the words: "With this pen, the die is cast." He then signed all nine letters and mailed them at the Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania post office the following morning.
-Despite the Claimant Letter being dated 30 October and signed on 1 November, the 2nd of November is a [[Public Holidays in Westarctica|public holiday]] celebrated as Independence Day in [[Westarctica]] due to it being the day Travis gained the courage to undertake the action of actually mailing the letters. The largest celebration to date was the [[Westarctica's 15th Anniversary Celebration|15th Anniversary Celebration]] in 2016.
