Ringtail - State Mammal

The Ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) is one of the least encountered mammals within Arizona. At the same time, it is very common and widespread, spending much of its time high on cliffs at night. It currently holds the title of Arizona's state mammal. If you get the chance to be out camping, night hiking, or just in the right areas; keep your eyes peeled for these cute little critters!
