Lizards that thrive at temperatures of 110 F, plants that clone themselves then poison the soil around them, cacti that have hooks for spines and disperse in 40mph winds, and 500-year-old Joshua Trees! We’re heading south of Monterey County in this special Brown Bag talk about the amazing plants and animals of the Mojave Desert, and the ways in which they survive and thrive in such a harsh environment. Get ready for a fun time with surprising facts, beautiful photos, and a journey in place to one of the coolest places in the world! Enjoy a cookie on us and bring your lunch if you’d like to this fun talk!
