Palm Desert, California: Great Place for Family Fun

Interact with Wildlife

By Judy Koutsky

The Living Desert is also a place to get up-close and personal with wildlife. At the Petting Kraal, you can feed goats and sheep, as well as interact with other animals. You can also see giraffes just inches away when you feed them a snack. Don't forget to visit the botanical gardens-it's like walking through a magic door to Mexico, Africa and Madagascar. For added fun, families can even camp overnight by participating in the Starry Safari program.
