Chowchilla, California

Chowchilla is a city in Madera County, California, United States. It is part of the Madera, California Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 11,127 at the 2000 census . The name "Chowchilla" is derived from the Native American tribe of Chauchila Yokut Indians which once lived in the area. The name itself evidently translates as "Murderers" and is apparently a reference to the warlike nature of the Chauchila tribe. The Chauchila Indians were inadvertently responsible for the first white men "discovering" Yosemite Valley, which occurred when the Chauchila Indians were being pursued by a band of whites. References to the Indian tribe still abound in Chowchilla, and the town's sole high school still retains the moniker of "Redskins" as their local mascot.
