Deserts of the World
Approximately one-third of the Earth’s land surface is desert, arid land with little rainfall that supports only sparse vegetation. Reptiles living in deserts have adapted to the arid environment, the sand and the higher UV-radiation. The Exo Terra® Reptile UVB150 is a specially designed light source for desert terrariums. The Desert Sand also makes an excellent heat conductor for Exo Terra’s® Heat Mat.
