Yosemite’s mountain peaks are already capped with snow and a mist rolls through the valleys. The coyote’s mating season begins as winter starts, and the bobcat mother will soon leave her young to fend for themselves.

Arizona’s Saguaro National Park was created to save the iconic and increasingly rare saguaro cactus from extinction. Within the park’s desert scenery, conflicts arise between species and can often resemble an Old West showdown at high noon!

A courageous roadrunner faces off with a venomous rattlesnake. The small amount of precious rainfall that January provides gives the desert a sudden spark of life. Plants grow, flower, and store water, and the tiny Costa’s hummingbird uses the finest materials that nature provides to make a nest for her young.

Male rattlesnakes “dance” in a show of strength designed to win females. A cholla cactus uses its prickly form of defense and the passing javelina to populate new parts of the desert. Meanwhile, the javelina’s tiny young are threatened by a hungry coyote.

Despite the intense heat, a female hummingbird must adapt her diet and work non-stop to feed the young in her nest. The rattlesnakes are breeding, and the victorious male claims its hard-won mate.

A giant scorpion is on the prowl looking for food, and a family of grasshopper mice seems to be on his menu tonight. However, the fortitude of the desert's denizens should never be underestimated.
