  • Two hardened tubes are visible in the Ape Cave, a lava tube located near Mount St. Helens in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Washington state. The ape cave formed about 2,000 years ago during the only known period when fluid basaltic lava erupted from the volcano.

This period of activity may have lasted a year during which the lava level rose and fell, leading to the unique shapes inside the cave. The Ape Cave lava tube is 13,042 feet (3976 meters) long, ranking as the third-longest in North America. The cave is named for a local hiking club, the St. Helens Apes.

All of the foxes in the park are technically red foxes, even if they are black, silver or tan. Red foxes were introduced to San Juan Island on various occasions in the 1900s.

  • A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) runs with a European rabbit (Oryctolagus cunuculus) it caught in the prairie of San Juan Island National Historical Park on San Juan Island, Washington. Both foxes and rabbits were introduced to San Juan Island. The rabbits were introduced to the island in the 1890s by settlers; foxes were introduced occasionally in the 1900s. The European rabbits in particular are considered an invasive species, turning the prairie into an unsustainable barren landscape with their vast burrows. This displaces small native mammals, such as the Townsend's vole. Seconds after this image was taken, a bald eagle attacked the fox to steal the rabbit.
