Desert fauna

Desert fauna refers to animals adapted to survive in arid, hot environments with scarce water and extreme temperatures. These creatures often have unique features such as nocturnal habits to avoid daytime heat, specialized water conservation abilities, and burrowing behaviors to stay cool. Examples include reptiles like lizards and snakes, mammals such as rodents and camels, and insects like beetles. Their adaptations enable them to find food, avoid predators, and withstand challenging conditions that would be inhospitable to many other animals. These resilient species illustrate how life adjusts to some of the planet's most extreme environments.
