VIDEO Gila Monster

An uncommon sight in the Sonoran Desert, filmed on May 1, 2007. An hour later Charlie arrived with fresh photos of a separate Gila Monster not half a mile away. This my fourth sighting this Spring…I’m hoping to see some juveniles before long!

Heloderma comes from the Greek words Helos — the head of a nail or stud — and derma, or skin.

They also cooperate, blocking migrating fish by forming a semicircle across the river.
