Steller's jay
There are at least 107 bird species, including the Steller's jay and mountain chickadee, found in the Tehachapis, many which consume acorns of the black oak ("Quercus kelloggii") as part of their diet. Other flora found here include the buckbrush and mountain mahogany. The notable raptor is the California condor, a critically endangered species. As in many California mountains, larger fauna includes: mule deer, mountain lion, coyote, fox, black bear, feral pig, bobcat and raccoon.
