South Mountain AZ Laws

zachsreptiles95 Dec 24, 2008 12:11 AM

Hey does anyone know the exact chuck laws to South Mountain. Are just the carrot-tails illegal to take from there or are any types illegal?

Oh and does Soutn Mtn. have red-backs???

Thanks

Only carrot tails naturally occur in the South Mtns, no redbacks. Carrot tails are only found in these mountains, which is why they are protected.
All chucks there are off limits to collection. I believe collection has been prohibited since 1997 or 1998. The visitor's center for the park has more exact info. I have been there several times to photograph the chucks, and there are signs everywhere to remind visitors that the chucks may not be captured, or harassed in any way.
