No pun intended.

I have some questions....

1. Kerry how often do you come across road kill gilas?

2. Is it more common then finding them alive? In other words I'm curious if area "sightings" have been established solely on the fact of finding a road kill as opposed to ever finding one alive.

3. Do they tend to be more juveniles or adults or is it a mixed ratio?

4. Is it more common at different times of year?

I know they have activity peaks but I wonder if the road kills are while crossing the road or while trying to absorb heat from the asphalt.


Any answers you could give would be appreciated.
