Desert Knowledge for Kids

Hi, I am Chilpa the Western Quoll.

I have just returned to my desert home in Australia from an exciting trip to the Sonoran Desert in North America.

Can you see the Sonoran Desert there in the top left hand picture of the world?

I went to the Sonoran Desert to see what kinds of plants, animals and people live there. I thought it would be fun to compare the Australian Desert with the Sonoran Desert and see what is the same and what is different.

Use the navigation on the left to explore the plants, animals and people of the Australian desert with me or click on my friend Carl the Coati to explore his Sonoran Desert home.

Lets go!
