Sonoran Desert Journeys
2022
Overview
Lizards dashing rapidly between plants. Songbirds and woodpeckers
flying to and from their nests. Hawks perched on saguaros. What
kinds of journeys have these and many other animals and plants and
their ancestors taken in space and time to arrive in the Sonoran
Desert? How long have these species been living together here? In
Sonoran Desert Journeys ecologist Theodore H. Fleming
discusses two remarkable journeys. First, Fleming offers a brief
history of our intellectual and technical journey over the past
three centuries to understand the evolution of life on Earth. Next,
he applies those techniques on a journey of discovery about the
evolution and natural history of some of the Sonoran Desert's most
iconic animals and plants. Fleming details the daily lives of a
variety of reptiles, birds, mammals, and plants, describing their
basic natural and evolutionary histories and addressing intriguing
issues associated with their lifestyles and how they cope with a
changing climate. Finally, Fleming discusses the complexity of
Sonoran Desert conservation. This book explores the evolution and
natural history of iconic animals and plants of the northern
Sonoran Desert through the eyes of a curious naturalist and
provides a model of how we can coexist with the unique species that
call this area home.
