Shrews in desert biomes adapt by being primarily nocturnal, which helps them avoid the extreme heat of the day. They have developed a diet that includes insects and small invertebrates, allowing them to find food sources that are abundant in arid environments. Additionally, their small size and high metabolic rate enable them to require less water, as they can obtain moisture from their food. Some species may also burrow to escape harsh surface conditions.

The Namib Desert is a cold desert or cool coastal desert, depending on the classification system.
The sand shrew has several adaptations that help it thrive in a desert climate. Its fur is light-colored, which provides camouflage in sandy environments and reflects sunlight to reduce heat absorption. Additionally, it has specialized kidneys that efficiently conserve water, allowing it to survive with minimal hydration. The sand shrew is also nocturnal, foraging at night to avoid the extreme daytime temperatures.
