We had no idea how many different animals we'd see at the Living Desert Wildlife and Botanical Park in Palm Desert, California. We certainly didn't expect to see so many animals from Africa as well as those indigenous to the low desert area of this wonderful state we live in.

And so the usually dependable photographer didn't bring enough film to capture images of all the animals. However, he vows to himself and anyone out there who might be interested that he'll return soon to add to the marvelous collection of wildlife on display at this very interesting addition to the Palm Springs experience.
