DESERT ANIMALS - On this video is a list of animals that live in the desert, with pictures and videos on each species. We’ve selected desert animals from all over the world. Deserts are regions in which very little rain falls. Because living things need water to survive, deserts are home to relatively few plants and animals (especially when compared to habitats such as rainforests, jungles and oceans). Although deserts are known for being extremely hot during the day, they can also get very cold at night (because there are no clouds to prevent a desert’s heat from escaping into space). With very little water, and therefore very little food (plants can’t grow without water) – not to mention those extreme temperatures, life in the desert isn’t easy. Many animals that live in the desert have special adaptations to help them survive in this inhospitable environment. Desert animal adaptations include: large ears for dissipating body heat; a light-colored coat to reflect heat; hairy paws for walking on hot sand; the ability either to store water or to survive on very little water; being nocturnal; and living in a burrow. The animals in the list below all live in ‘hot deserts’ such as the Sahara Desert and Kalahari Desert in Africa, the Sonoran Desert and Mojave Desert in North America, the Great Victoria Desert in Australia, and the Arabian Desert in the Middle East. Examples of desert animals include invertebrates such as scorpions; reptiles such as the thorny devil, Gila monster and sidewinder rattlesnake; mammals such as the fennec fox, meerkat, dromedary and Bactrian camel; and birds such as the gila woodpecker and roadrunner. We hope that you have enjoyed meeting these desert animals. What is your favorite desert species? Have you seen any of these animals in the wild? Are there any other desert animals you think should be on this list?
