Sammy's Nature Science

This book is a look into several of the creatures that inhabit the state of Arizona. Some species of these creatures may only be found in Arizona. I included the story called "A Mouth Full of Cotton" because it's an example of a species turned loose in an alien habitat. I could've died since there would be no antivenom available in Arizona.

I use my radio show characters known as Farmer Family to tell science facts about the wildlife in this book. Some of these stories were taken from The Donkey Dan Show. Others were rewritten from my notes of stories we never used on the show.

Though we have many dangerous creatures in Arizona, most are actually small. We also have a few dangerous desert plants in Arizona. Then there are the six large carnivores that call Arizona home, three of which I have never seen in person in all of my wandering.
