Three facts I learned while I was reading:

Antelope ground squirrels get their water from their food.

Temperatures can go all the way up to 120 degrees!

The kit fox is mostly nocturnal.

 

Two questions I have for the author:

Why is there snow in the desert sometimes?

Why do plants drop their leaves to save moisture?

 

One thing that I thought was the most interesting:

A cougar may eat mice or grasshoppers.  A cougar is a type of cat.  It’s like a panther but not black.
