Wait… coatis in the U.S.?
Yep! Chiricahua National Monument is home to white-nosed coatis, the curious cousins of the raccoon. These playful foragers dig, climb, chase and explore.
Large groups are usually females and young, while adult males go solo.
Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the courage of the first responders who ran toward danger when the rest of the world ran away.
At Tucson Fire, we carry their example with us every day in the work we do to protect our community. We also remember the families, the survivors, and the heroes whose actions that day remind us what service, sacrifice, and resilience truly mean.
