Product Description
The ‘Desert’ coin is the third issue in the ‘Our Wonderful Earth Ecosystems’ series. Featuring Our Earth in a new series dedicated to the various ecosystems of the world. This issue is dedicated to the Desert.
A desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and, consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life. Plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environment. Plants tend to be tough and wiry with small or no leaves, water-resistant cuticles, and often spines to deter herbivory. Animals need to keep cool and find enough food and water to survive. Many are nocturnal and stay in the shade or underground during the heat of the day. They tend to be efficient at conserving water, extracting most of their needs from their food.
