Interesting, but very short, Arizona Daily Star article from Feb. 2010 - notable because 'Jim Heffelfinger, a spokesman for the Arizona Game and Fish Department' gives some comments about sightings (I may not know where to look/who/how to ask but have found that 'official' information is somewhat hard to come by).
