To avoid heat and drought, most desert animals emerge from hiding during twilight and nighttime hours. What you might not see, you are more likely to hear, iF you can escape background noise that we have become so accustomed to—automobiles, air conditioners, generators, TV broadcasts, barking dogs, airplanes, etc. Noise is growing exponentially as humans continue to consume wild places. Our noise pollution disrupts normal behavior patterns of wildlife and our ability to listen to the pulse of our planet.

We are losing something basic and precious. Hopefully, this audio program will serve as a wake-up call for citizens and city planners to aggressively preserve open spaces in a natural state.

“Very entertaining, educational, and extremely well done! Many bird voices were familiar to me, others an education. Howling coyotes and thunder, lightning and gushing rain . . . never heard surround sound so impressive before!”

~ Angelika Siewert, Michigan customer
