It’s probably the only zoological gardens that can boast of having its own Rat Pack.
At The Living Desert in Palm Desert, Frank, Dean and Sammy are real rats who are put to work daily in the Wildlife Wonders Show in the Tennity Amphitheater.
From birds of prey to small mammals - such as the desert rats - the show features a few of the animals that make this unusual park home.
As the crowd waited for a recent animal show to begin, they were serenaded by a Frank Sinatra recording. How appropriate, I thought, for nearby Palm Springs was a stomping ground for some of the original Rat Pack, including Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr.
But the stars at this zoological preserve and garden are of a different kind - plants and animals found in one of the most forbidding environments: the desert.
...Google Earth - Discover The New Earth. The Natural World
Google Earth has revealed many of the secrets of our planet to a really wide audience.
Exploring our Earth using satellite imaging of Google Earth and Google Maps, is a truly interesting and rewarding experience. One can travel through the desolate landscapes of deserts, explore coastlines and fiords and climb up the highest mountains from the comfort of ones desk.
This article and photo collection is by no means a full guide or a concise report. It is a starting point for people who never took a trek around the globe using Google Earth. It is a stimulation for you to start your own exploration.

The first two photos are taking us to Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs. I chose to look for some oasis in the middle of the desert, and the result was rewarding to say the least.
