It is a terrain with climate characteristics that are completely different from typical deserts, although it still belongs to arid areas. This type of desert area has relatively high precipitation, but the evaporation rate is still low, allowing water to be retained in the soil and supporting more abundant vegetation growth. Climate conditions are typically influenced by nearby oceans or lakes, which provide the necessary humidity and precipitation. Typical features include seasonal floods, dense vegetation cover, and diverse wildlife populations. Although the precipitation is higher than typical deserts, it is still a fragile ecosystem that is vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and human activities.

The Galapagos land iguana (scientific name: Conolophussubicritatus) weighs up to 13 kilograms and measures 1 meter in length. The lower half is orange yellow, and the upper half is reddish brown. Due to the low corners, their appearance looks particularly foolish. The land iguana is distributed on six islands in the Galapagos Islands and is a unique species that evolved on the islands. The earthy yellow skin is designed to adapt to the color of sand and rocks. They mainly feed on cacti, which is related to the relatively dry climate of the Galapagos Islands. They choose to eat cacti because they can obtain the water their bodies need.
