Why do desert animals not die?
Desert animals have had thousands of years to adapt to the harsh environments. Humans and other such animals have not had the chance to adapt to desert climates like all desert animals. In sand deserts, camels -for example- have adapted to the lack of water, and do not need to drink very much fluid and can survive without water for long periods of time. Many other desert animals also have this ability. In snow deserts, many animals have gained long fun coats or think blubber which keeps them warm in the freezing climate and can also help to protect them. They are well prepared, and this is why they do not die because of the desert. Of course, they will eventually die, though.

When meerkats run, their tails go up, too--perhaps so other meerkats in the mob can see where the leader is headed.
What are some of a meerkat's adaptations?
