So these cows are not wild, but the area we are in is ranchland, and they are everywhere. Usually pretty docile, although sometimes they block the road.
One of the problems that many ranchers have with migrants is that the cows do sometimes eat clothing they leave behind, and then choke. Also, there have been cases where starving people have killed them for food. I can understand the perspective of the ranchers, these animals are their property and I am sure they do cost a lot. Having said that, I don't know what they or anyone else in their position would do if they were crossing through the desert and in these people's shoes.
"I'm telling you, mate. It's not GEICO. It's gecko". TV commercials aside, I'm not sure if there are geckos out here, but these lizards can be seen everywhere in the area.
Vulture. We can see one or two circling overhead on any given moment, when there is a dead body of an animal or person they congregate and eat it. I haven't seen a vulture feeding frenzy while out here, and don't want to.
