Which Animal Can Live in This Habitat? Desert

Deserts might seem inhospitable to life, but there are actually plenty of animals that can live there! Discover some of them in this worksheet. Learners will first describe a desert habitat with the help of an image prompt. In the second part, students will consider three different animals and answer whether each of them would be able to live in a desert environment. 

This worksheet is a great choice for second and third graders learning about ecosystems and animal adaptations. Students will use their logical reasoning and prior knowledge of both habitats and animals to judge whether the desert can support each animal. They will also practice important skills such as constructing an argument using evidence.
