Chihuahuan Desert Field Guide - Plants

Animals

Note: This new online Chihuahuan Desert Field Guide is part of ongoing efforts by the Chihuahuan Desert Education Coalition (CDEC) to help more people connect with this important part of our natural heritage. All of the animals and plants shown on these pages can be found at Tom Mays Park, site of the upcoming Third Annual Chihuahuan Desert Fiesta planned for September 22, 2007.  This guide will grow over time.  Volunteers who are interested in helping develop this online guide are encouraged to contact Rick LoBello at rickllobello@cs.com.
