For contact and arrival

Khan

Khan

For thousands of years, humans have lived on the fringes of the wild desert and maintained complex symbiotic relationships with it. Centuries ago, humans began harnessing animals for various purposes such as food, transportation, and agriculture. Other animals have adapted to live in close proximity to human settlements and have adjusted themselves to the changes brought about by human-built environments.

The khan represents this meeting point.

Desert Oasis

Oasis

A desert oasis is a place in the desert where a water source, such as a spring, well, river, or pond, is found.

Due to its uniqueness in the desert climate, the desert oasis serves as a lifeline for a variety of plants and animals that rely on it for water, food, shade, and shelter.

In the desert oasis, permanent residents can be found who depend on the proximity to the water source in order to survive in the desert. Additionally, passing animals seize the opportunity to enjoy the abundance of resources and conditions provided by the oasis.

Desert Plain

Desert Plain

The desert plain is a flat and wide desert region characterized by grassy vegetation, sparse shrubs and trees, and rocky terrain.

In the vast desert plains, the living conditions are particularly extreme due to the scarcity of water, shade, and shelter, as well as extreme temperature variations between day and night.

The permanent resident animals of the plains have developed highly adaptive abilities to cope with these challenging conditions.

Canyon

Canyon

Canyons are deep and narrow valleys with steep cliff walls. They are formed through natural processes such as erosion of the ground due to water flow or as a result of tectonic activity.

The towering cliffs of the desert canyon provide shade and protection from heat, as well as a refuge and hiding place. In order to thrive in the canyon, animals have developed a variety of special movement abilities, such as climbing, flying, and crawling.

Savanna

Savannah

A savannah is an open and flat plain where both dry and rainy seasons occur, and it remains hot throughout the year. The savannah is characterized by slightly more rainfall than in deserts, allowing for a lush growth of grasses and low-lying shrubs.

Savannahs serve as habitats for diverse species of plants and animals worldwide, and in Africa, they are home to some of the largest terrestrial mammals on the planet.
