Tarahumara is a locality within the Sonoran Desert. For years, some people have incorrectly interchangeably claimed sonorans were tarahumaras and sold them as such, or bred them to tarahumaras. Hell, I caught a guy selling "tarahumara" babies from a female sonoran with a claimed tarahumara male.... I sold him the female.
Unless someone is buying directly from Vin or Gus, or who can show the applicable paperwork that confirms the locality, I would steer clear.

Definitely ask for papers. I have 2 of them. That one looks like it might be a one. Have to see it in better lighting.
