They come out of their homes to die I guess, I have seen it several times, in the middle of the desert....I prefer to see them alive of course....cool creatures to say the least...cheers

Ambling down the trail when we were coming down from the wall. Scared the crap out of my wife and startled me pretty good also! I hadnt taken them into consideration before seeing one unexpectedly.

guess she would not be impressed if she found one in her bathroom then? My wife did....her reaction surprised me to the up side, but still was not thrilled and she is quite the animal lover..actually cool creatures...go for a run after a rain, right time of year, on a paved trail through a park like Snow Canyon and you will see a bunch of them. Cheers

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
