!!More to the point, why isn't almost ''everyone'' Native American?
Most of them seem to be species native to Nevada - Jake in particular ought to be Native, logically speaking, since rattlesnakes certainly didn't migrate from Europe. Rango wouldn't be because chameleons don't come from the USA, but he's an outsider anyway.

That said, it's not clear what fruits those were but there are some cacti (like some species of ''pitaya'' and ''opuntia'') that do produce fruits, so maybe it was fruiting seasons for said cacti. Another expo is would be that is that there is some trade in the town of Dirt.

* Who is responsible for killing Mr. Merrimack and messing with the emergency shutoff valve? The movie implies that it's the Mayor, because there are footprints with distinctive red mud at the site of Mr. Merrimack's murder and the shutoff valve, and the muddy boots are later found in the Mayor's possession, but the Mayor is in a wheelchair (and is never shown wearing boots for that matter). We see at the climax that the Mayor is not faking his inability to walk, so who did wear the boots? Was it Bad Bill or one of the Mayor's other various henchmen?

** Well you said it yourself. They CAN'T fly. The turkey is, well, a turkey, Arrow Eye is a chicken, and Wounded Bird is [[ShapedLikeItself a wounded bird]], so one would assume it's not just his leg that's messed up. As for the owls, burrowing owls tend to walk rather than fly, and are better equiped for that, but as we never see them travel it's sort of a moot point, although they DID get up in that tree that one night, and were on top of the building too, so they probably DO fly. In any case, I think it's safe to assume that, if they're not flying, it's because they can't, or just don't bother.

Rango is a cautious, thoughtful fellow, and, while it's hardly a DefeatEqualsFriendship situation, Jake seems to respect that...which is why once their quarrel was done he showed no animosity towards the new sheriff, leaving (fairly) peaceably.
