The Living Desert

Thursday, February 11 (1 day)

Embark on a new day tour to one of the most unusual institutions in the United States. There isn’t a single word to describe all that The Living Desert is and does but several will do – zoo, endangered species conservation center, botanical gardens, natural history museum and wilderness park. The Living Desert will show you how language has misled everyone into thinking of the desert as a surly, outlaw landscape instead of a fragile, interesting ecosystem. You’ll see remarkable plants, animals and natural phenomena associated with deserts and learn how The Living Desert is helping to interpret and protect them. Upon arrival you will be joined by a nature guide who will provide a driving tour of the grounds. Following, we’ll take in a Wildlife Wonders Animal Show and have an included box lunch. We’ll see the spectacular “G-Scale” model train exhibit that currently includes more than 3,000 feet of track with six different loops running through historic scenes, such as Mount Rushmore, a California logging and mining town, the south rim of the Grand Canyon with a scale model of the El Tovar Hotel and Southwest cliff dwellings.
