The large cactus dominating the picture to the left is a Saguaro (Sa-wah-ro). These get so large that phone companies hide cell towers inside them.
Below is a picture of a Cholla (choy-a). These cacti are so prickly that the needles can jump into your skin if you walk too close to them.
These pictures were taken by me in late December 2012 in the Saguaro National Forest in Tucson, Arizona.
