Editorial cartoon © 2025 by Dave Granlund depicting a large very unhappy bear crying as he stands in the desolation caused by the fires in what is clearly Los Angeles, California. The bear is wearing jeans with a belt buckle marked "Smokey". He is holding his hat in his right hand and a shovel in his left. He has a black armband on his left arm marked "CALIF." His head is down, his eyes are closed, and tears are leaking out of his left eye. Smokey is very sad indeed. He has a right to be. Vast areas of Los Angeles have burned to the ground and over two dozen people are dead, not to mention all the wildlife also wiped out as a result of these massive fires still (Jan 6-14) sweeping the countryside.
