Kanab has also gained some fame for being the site of many western
movies. It's locally known a bit boastfully as "Little Hollywood."
Another point of local fame is Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, a large
pet preserve up in the canyon and open to visitors. Nearby is historic
Moqui Cave and its unique collection of dinosaur footprints and Native
American artifacts.
