Photo: Mountain Lion

Mountain lions are occasionally spotted in the mountains in the Phoenix area, but that is rare.  This is another of the species that live and are displayed at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum just outside of Tucson.

Photo: Desert Bighorn Sheep

Desert bighorn sheep are majestic creatures.  We do have them in the wild in Arizona, but they are hard to spot.  This one was at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson.  It is in part a museum, partly a zoo, and partly a botanical garden.

Photo" Prairie Dog

Prairie dogs are cute, but they are rodents.  Farmers and ranchers do not like them, however, and sometimes refer to them as "prairie rats."

I took this photo at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum just outside of Tucson.  That explains how I was able to get close enough to be able to tell that this is a female.
