CRITICALLY THREATENED DESERT BALD EAGLE
Arizona is home to the entire known population of desert nesting bald eagles in the United States. This southwestern population of bald eagles nests primarily along the Salt and Verde Rivers in central Arizona. In the Verde Valley, there are currently 3 bald eagle breeding areas; Towers, Oak Creek, and Ladders. The current known nesting population of Arizona bald eagles is small, but is expanding.
Currently continued protection and monitoring of this unique population of desert-nesting eagles is needed in order to
recover the birds to a healthy viable number.
ANCIENT REPTILE TRACKS
Dinosaur species, large and small, once called Arizona home. There are a number of prints that can be found across the state, some famous, and some lesser-known, like these. Sandstone deposits near Sedona reveal that this area was once covered in vast, wind-swept dune fields, much like the modern Sahara Desert. On the fringes of these dunes or near desert oases, where water was available, reptiles roamed and left their mark.
This trackway is preserved in the Permian Schnebly Hill Formation and clearly shows front and rear foot pads, digits (toes and fingers) and even claw marks. Such preservation brings to life the ancient world as it existed near Sedona some 280 million years ago. Note the faint wind ripples ripples that trend from lower left to upper right.

It is unsure to which reptile these belong, although it is suggested Ichniotherium, which does appear to be a good match, but each print is small, maybe an inch (or more) across, so clearly not a large animal.
