yeah, felt sry for this dude, he looked like he wanted/needed help. The desert is a much harher environ than the Canadian Rockies to be sure. Our dog has a slightly bigger belly!

Great photo! Can you believe that I never ever saw a coyote in Red Rocks. I do see lots of their droppings all the time.

well, I have never seen a burro yet Anya and getting quite peturbed about it....thinking you locals might be making this up and spreading equine dung all over the place during the night...heading into Black Velvet today, maybe it is my lucky day...

That guy has eyes that just cut right into you.
I think I'd always worry a bit about rabies and one thing about burros, they generally aren't rabid. : )

he was tired and ill, no question...felt sorry for him....the desert is a rough place compared to the richer alpine environment for predators. Still have not seen my first burro Dean....heard them bray several times while I was climbing, but never seen one yet..growing impatient.... 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
