However, some of my fellow guests at the resort have seen them some Gila monsters on the grounds. Actually there is a staff member who has an ongoing relationship, I am told, with one particular Gila monster. I don't know the details, but the two of them meet regularly. Bet food is involved.
One guest going down a sidewalk could not help but observe the Gila monster sitting right on the concrete, motionless. She walked around it. As she continued walking, she looked back, and there it was, following her down the sidewalk. She was telling all about it the next day.
