Even though the Gobi Desert is a tremendous desert, it gets bigger every year. The culprit is:
Desertification. Desertification happens all over the globe. It happens when living things such
as animals and people go to an area and use all of the resources such as water, plants, and food.
When this happens, tree roots start getting loose from the soil and the soil or dirt isn’t packed
tightly together because there is nothing holding it down. The soil or dirt eventually gets loose
from the ground and wind blows the soil away. Since there is no water, there isn’t moisture in the
ground and dries up the soil. This is how a desert is born. Some of the most important discoveries
were made in this desert. One of the finds is the eggs of a dinosaur. The Gobi Desert is a main
source of many different fossil finds. This desert is also the home of Marco Polo’s famous Silk
Road. These events have a special place in the Gobi Desert and History.
The Gobi Desert has amazing extremes from the temperature to the habitat. Even though it’s a
desert, it is still in our beautiful world. The world we live in still amazes us. There is still so much
to discover. I’ve only shared with you some information regarding the Gobi Desert. I hope you will
see the miracles the world has made for us with our own eyes.
