About The Living Desert
You are in that dry, hot,
empty, hostile, deserted,
dead wasteland of a place
called “the desert.”
Or are you?
This website tour
through The Living Desert
and the deserts of the world
you are about to embark
on will show you how language
has misled everyone into
thinking of the desert as
a surly, outlaw landscape
instead of a fragile, interesting
ecosystem. You’ll see remarkable
plants, animals, places
and natural phenomena associated
with deserts and learn how
The Living Desert is helping
to interpret and protect
them.
Within its 1,200 acres you
will discover nearly 400
fascinating desert animals
representing over 150 species
including coyotes, bighorn
sheep, oryx, zebras, cheetahs
and meerkats. There are
lush botanical gardens representing
10 different desert ecosystems
and a journey to "Eagle
Canyon," with its streams,
mountain lions, bobcats,
Mexican wolves and golden
eagles is a definite "must
see." All of this
plus wilderness hiking trails,
Native American exhibits
and special events and programs
throughout the year.
