August is considered the peak season for rattlesnakes to have their babies.

ORO VALLEY, Ariz. — The rattlesnake birthing season appears to be underway after a family of snakes were recently relocated off of an Arizona property.

The Golder Ranch Fire District in Pima County reported getting a call recently for a bundle of snakes found in a bricked area next to an Oro Valley home. A total of nine baby rattlesnakes, one adult rattlesnake, and one large bull snake was removed from the area.

The call is a good reminder to Arizona residents that August is considered the birthing season for rattlesnakes. The monsoon moisture in the air will signal to mother rattlesnakes that now is a suitable time to find a safe place to give birth.

It is considered quite rare for snakes to give birth near a residence but one Scottsdale homeowner encountered their own family of baby snakes last August.

Baby rattlesnakes will often stay around their mother for a couple of weeks before venturing out on their own to find food.

Tips on what to do if you encounter a little rattler out in the wild can be found here.

What is the Valley?:

“The Valley” is what locals call the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. It is considered the largest metropolitan area in the Southwest.

The Valley is made up of various major cities other than Phoenix, including:

Whether a city is in the “East Valley” or “West Valley” depends on where it is in relation to Phoenix.

The cities of the Valley have a combined population of 4,845,832 people, according to the 2020 United States Census. This makes it the 11th largest metropolitan area in the country right behind the Boston and Atlanta areas.

How big is Maricopa County?:

Maricopa County is the United States’ 4th largest county in terms of population with 4,485,414 people, according to the 2020 Census.

The county contains around 63% of Arizona’s population and is 9,224 square miles. That makes the county larger than seven U.S. states (Rhode Island, Delaware, Connecticut, Hawaii, New Jersey, Massachusetts and New Hampshire).

One of the largest park systems in the nation is also located in Maricopa County. The county has an estimated 120,000 acres of open space parks that includes hundreds of miles of trails, nature centers and campgrounds.

The county’s seat is located in Phoenix, which is also the state capital and the census-designated 5th most populous city in the United States.

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A KGUN9 viewer sent in this video of a bobcat taking a drink from a fountain in their Oro Valley backyard.

In the original video, the person recording is walking towards the wild animal.

Mark Hart with Arizona Game and Fish described why that's not a good idea.

"Well I've seen worse, but in general, you should never approach wildlife. They're just too unpredictable,” Hart said.

“Bobcats, especially, can be quite fierce. And if there were, say a loud noise or something else that startled the bobcat, its reaction can be unpredictable. You can be badly injured by a bobcat," he added.

Hart said it's important to haze wild animals like this so they don't get too comfortable around people. That includes waving your arms and yelling at the animal. Once an animal gets too comfortable around people, it may become dangerous and eventually attack someone nearby.

As for whether you should let the animal get water first — Hart said it's a judgment call. But when it's done drinking, you should scare it away.

The following is the opinion and analysis of the writers:

Tucson can be proud to have thoughtful, caring and smart Council members, along with an outstanding, compassionate leader in Mayor Romero. But even the best and brightest can make mistakes.

And they have made a doozy with their rushed (effectively zero public comment); under-informed (nationwide, other municipalities have successfully negotiated side agreements to their utility franchise agreements legally committing their utilities to putting meaningful dollars into climate action plans); and potentially catastrophic approval of the franchise agreement between the City and Tucson Electric Power (25 more years of TEP burning climate-disastrous fossil fuels while continuing its current 20-year track record of empty promises on renewable energy.)

Ordinarily, these kinds of boring, technical agreements generate scant public attention, and the required voter approval is a no-brainer. But not anymore. Not when the region’s biggest belcher of greenhouse gases wants another 25 years to enrich their shareholders at the expense of cleaner air and the region’s dwindling water supply. And charge everyone everywhere all at once for what mostly benefits a few special interest groups.

The City has only itself to blame for this mess. TEP took supreme advantage of a set of circumstances that put the City in a bind—and set itself up as the White Knight, spreading the franchise agreement like a coat across a very muddy puddle so the City could walk across and not get its feet wet.

What we’re seeing is a Tragedy in Three Acts.

Act One. Enter the University of Arizona with righteous climate goals of 100% renewable energy. Problem: not enough electrical capacity. Solution: Build out two miles of high-voltage transmission lines to UA’s doorstep through the Sam Hughes neighborhood.

Act Two. Enter neighborhoods. Not at all happy about their sight lines. They organize and pressure the City. Charter says to underground lines in view corridors (but says nothing about how to pay for it). Sam Hughes is in a view corridor. Cost: $45 million to underground, but only $1.8 million to put on poles. Who cares? City will write checks. UA happy, Sam Hughes happy. (UA deafening silence about kicking in any dough and potentially even bigger City money worries as many more neighborhoods would also qualify as view corridors.)

Act Three. Enter Tucson Electric Power. “Hey, City, we can help.” Just sign on the dotted line right now (the current franchise agreement doesn’t really end until April 26, 2027) and we’ll get you the undergrounding money! No, we’ll put nothing in writing about money to put real meaningful dollars into your Climate Action and Adaptation Plan, but here’s a letter of righteous intent from our CEO. We won’t do Jack to help with undergrounding or quickly move on midtown’s deteriorating electrical infrastructure unless you immediately approve this new franchise agreement and get it to a public vote.

Epilogue. There won’t be a sad one if you vote “no” on Prop 412. You’re going to be paying higher rates that benefit a select few. There’s only a pitiful amount of money in it to fight the climate disaster Tucson faces and fully acknowledges in the City’s climate plan. And if you vote “yes” there will be no/zero/nada leverage to bring TEP to the climate mitigation bargaining table for any parallel agreement that could legally obligate them to change their energy mix.

TEP isn’t the bad guy here and really neither is the City. TEP is just doing what its corporate charter requires: make as much money as legally possible.

The only temporary solution here is to vote “no” on 412 and rethink this whole idea of undergrounding.

What about making those two miles of poles (14 or so) into a City attraction of art by, as Judith Anderson, a member of the Tucson Climate Coalition, suggested, acknowledging Tucson’s cultural heritages: the Yaqui, Tohono O’odham, Latino, Black and more, creating a different kind of view corridor on those poles? Just a thought.

Rick Rappaport is a member of Tucson Climate Coalition, Citizens Climate Lobby and Arizonans for Community Choice Energy. He lives in Oro Valley.
