Plants and animals of the Sonora desert


The Sonora desert is a hot and dry place, home to animals like the Gila monster, Panther, Horned lizard, and Western Diamondback Rattlesnake. Plants like the Saguaro cactus, are good places for animals to take shelter from predators like bats, and elf owls. People should care about the desert and its animals because deserts can be one of the only homes that houses some of the rarest animals in North America. . Some exotic (invasive) animals like the gecko kill the native animals in the desert, and it is our job to keep their populations under control. If I ever journey to the Sonora or any other types of deserts, I will stop and look at all the plants and animals and think about how hard it is for them to cope and survive in this harsh climate. Even if you are in the desert. stop and think about all the animals and plants you have seen or hoping the see cope with life in the big, harsh, hot, and amazing Sonora desert.
