Original: People aren’t the only ones using the Arizona Trail

Researchers at Arizona State University report that the Arizona Trail, an 800-mile route stretching from Mexico to Utah, is used not just by hikers and riders but by a wide range of wildlife. Camera and monitoring work shows animals moving along the corridor, highlighting the trail's role as habitat and passage. The findings are drawing attention to how recreation and conservation can coexist on long-distance routes.

Why now: A new ASU-published finding reveals the famous trail doubles as a wildlife corridor, surprising outdoor and conservation audiences.
