***About Saguaro Cacti:

*** The saguaro cactus, native to the Sonoran Desert, is more than just an emblem of the American Southwest. It serves as a vital ecological resource, offering habitat and sustenance to a diverse array of wildlife. Saguaros can live for over 150 years and grow to heights of over 40 feet. Throughout their lifecycle, they play host to numerous species, from the symbiotic relationships with pollinators like bats and bees to providing homes for birds such as the Gila woodpecker and the elf owl. The saguaro's significance extends beyond ecology; it is deeply engrained in the culture and traditions of the Indigenous peoples of the desert, including the Hohokam, who utilized the cactus for food, tools, and shelter.
