The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints(FLDS) split off the mainstream LDS Church because the FLDS practice polygamy, while the mainstream LDS has renounced the practice. Most of the adherents live in the border towns of Hildale, Utah and Colorado City, Arizona in the area known as Short Creek. There are also members living in Eldorado, Texas; Colorado; South Dakota; and British Columbia.
