These snakes are nocturnal predators, foraging actively in search of prey. Their diet consists mostly of small rodents like kangaroo rats and lizards but they also feed on other snakes, birds, bird eggs and even some insects. This species is eaten by king snakes, roadrunners, and other predators.

This desert is approximately 50,400 square miles in range; it is relatively the size of Alabama. The desert predominately consists of the fauna closets to the Sonoran desert; while some of its woodland consists of the Great Basin. The Mojave desert is acclaimed to being unique for its range of elevations which are not found in any other North American deserts. (Sea level in Death Valley- 1,600 on certain mountain tops.) The Mojave deserts biome consists of deserts and xeric shrublands; although it can be argued that it is not a biological distinct desert it does represent distinct  communities which occur throughout the desert.]]> 2017-09-06 20:19:19 UTC https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185308635 Information for the Mojave Desert xavierb3610 https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185309397 Smallest desert in the US.

-Since there is very little water in the region, most all these animals seen below either feed on other animals or plants to aquire the water they need to survive.

However; the main reason for habitat destruction/lose would be due to the increase of land-fill space, suburbanization, and urbanization. In which, Los Angeles and Las Vegas push for these endemics; they want to utilize the landfill spaces for agricultural development, grazing, off-road vehicles, and military activities. (see photographs below.) Roads have also been seen as a major reason for the destruction of species such as: various snake species, desert tortoise, and big horn sheep. Areas of the Mojave desert which are in danger/not protected would be found in lower elevation valleys; in which off-road vehicles and development are harming these valleys and the flora such as Creosote bush areas. The main human impacts are due to destruction of the land, so that it may be used for other land-fill spaces. xavierb3610 https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185626823 2017-09-07 17:37:23 UTC https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185626823 Activties xavierb3610 https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185627642 2017-09-07 17:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185627642 Species antoniop2855 https://padlet.com/damiana3713/j5nyb4e53hs6/wish/185920682 1)Coyote
