The Arizona desert is full of creatures, large and small, that might present a challenge to humans.
Most are willing to share the desert, but like all animals in nature, if threatened they will fight back.

To that end, we must constantly caution our guests not to feed the wildlife. Heck, I have to keep reminding MYSELF!

I received these pictures just a few days ago. This person's home backs up to the Union Hills Golf Course in Sun City. She took these pictures of the first baby coyotes born there this year, about the middle of May. No matter what the species, aren't all babies cute?

Time to go home, children!
