Desert Food Chains

Plants and animals in the Sonoran Desert food chains have had to adapt to the hot, dry climate of this habitat. Conserving water is a large part of these food chain adaptations. Learn about the spectacular Saguaro cacti and the many herbivores and carnivores that are part of the food chains of this desert. Readers will learn about: how plants make food; how desert plants and animals adapt to drought and heat; dangers to Sonoran Desert food chains and webs; and how to help save desert plants and animals.
