Catching Dangerous Creatures with Coyote Peterson!

Get ready for this episode of Coyote Peterson’s Wild Field Trip, featuring six-year-old guest host Cooper Labanow as he braves the nighttime desert in search of its infamous venomous and poisonous inhabitants. As the hot desert sun sets, Coyote and Cooper turn on their flashlights and explore the remarkable grounds of the Boyce Thompson Arboretum, a desert oasis for all kinds of creepy crawlies. The two quickly make their way up the dangerous ladder of species, from hairy tarantulas, glowing scorpions, and to the most dangerous of all, the rattlesnake!
