Arizona is a constituent state of the United States of America, and is the sixth largest state in the country by area. Although Arizona is widely known for its hot, low-lying deserts covered with cactus and creosote bushes, over half of the state is at least 1,200 meters above sea level and has the world's largest evergreen ponderosa pine forest. Arizona is commonly known for its waterless desert, but its many large man-made lakes mean it has many more miles of coastline than its reputation suggests. Spectacular landforms such as the Grand Canyon and the Painted Desert are international symbols of the region's wilderness. In addition, there are many national forests, national parks and national monuments in the state. Arizona is home to 24 areas maintained by the National Park Service, among them three national parks, the Grand Canyon National Park, the Saguaro National Park and the Petrified Forest National Park. Given the diversity of topography and climate, it is not surprising to find similar diversity in the vegetation of the state. The fauna is even more varied, with representatives of the ecological communities of the Rocky Mountains, the Great Plains and Mexico. Among the important larger mammals are Black Bears, deer, Desert Bighorns, antelope and wapiti. The coatimundi, a tropical raccoon-like mammal, is widespread in northern Arizona, while the javelina or peccary lives in the south. Of the various cats, the bobcat and puma are the most common in Arizona. There are coyotes, skunks and porcupines, as well as several species of rabbits, hares and foxes.
