Gila monster rescued at Valley of Fire

The valley of fire state park posted on its social media that a Gila monster was rescued from inside The mouse's tank.

Mouse’s Tank is a natural basin in the rock where water collects after each rainfall.

The basin is 15 feet deep and normally full of water.

However, with no rain for almost 6 months, it has dried up.

Visitors to the park notified park rangers about the creature and they were able to use a ladder to rescue it.

Just a reminder don't pick up a Gila monster if you see one because they are venomous.
