Gila monsters don’t have the lightening quick strike of a rattlesnake; you have to pester them in order to get bitten.  If you see a live one on the pavement or bike lane, try to gently guide it off the road and into dirt habitat with your front wheel.  They are at risk of being run over or scooped up by unscrupulous collectors.
