Second order of business in Oatman was feeding the wild burros. Oatman used to be a mining town and part of Route 66. When this stretch was bypassed and mining was not enough to support the town, it became somewhat of a ghost town. Now, however, it looks like tourism is bringing it back thanks to the wild burros, decendants of the burros used during mining days. Nearly every store sells carrots that tourists can then feed to the burros wandering the streets.
