A docent at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix told a story about one of these crested Saguaros.
One of them was rustled - a hiker noticed it was missing, he'd seen it for years and then it was gone.
Some time later (I can't remember if it was months / years / whatev) the hiker was driving through a neighborhood in suburban Phoenix, and there it was! He alerted someone at a state agency and big trouble ensued.
