your day ruined by perception The lack of small, tough, wiry plants will not get

in the way of animal sightings

you’ll be able to store water too! Just like a Cactus!

Check out the adaption of Animals! The huge ears of the Jackrabbit help

keep it cool because the ears give the rabbit more surface area to release heat off the top of their heads

Environmental Issues Climate is very hot and dry which

makes it hard for people, plants and animals to live in the desert

It is very hard for the desert biome to recover from environmental damage because the desert has a slow rate of growth causing the soil to be very fragile and have little resiliance
