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 '''[[Gothic Mountains]]''' is a group of mountains, 32 kilometers (20 mi) long, in the [[Queen Maud Mountains]] of [[Westarctica]], located west of [[Watson Escarpment]] and bounded by [[Scott Glacier]], Albanus Glacier, and Griffith Glacier. The mountains were first visited in December 1934 by the [[Richard E. Byrd|Byrd Antarctic Expedition]] geological party led by Quin Blackburn. The name was proposed by Edmund Stump, leader of a U.S. [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] Research Program (USARP) - Arizona State University geological party which made investigations here in the 1980-81 season. The mountains are composed of granites which have weathered to produce a series of spires and peaks reminiscent of a Gothic cathedral.
