Lack of water creates a survival problem for all desert animals.And animals can live only within a relatively narrow temperature range.For four or five months of the year，the daily temperatures in the desert may actually go beyond this range.So survival for desert animals is very difficult.

Fortunately，most desert animals have evolved (进化) to solve the heat and water problems the desert environment creates.

Take Phainopepla, a slim black bird for example. It breeds during the relatively cool spring，then leave the desert for cooler areas.Many birds are active only at dawn and within a few hours of sunset.Some birds，such as the kingbird，continue activity throughout the day，but always fly or sit in the shade.

A few desert animals，such as the Roundtailed Ground Squirrel，sleep away the hottest part of the summer.They also hibernate (冬眠) in winter to avoid the cold season.Some desert animals such as Desert Toads，stay deep under the ground until the summer rains fill ponds. They then come out from under the ground，breed，lay eggs and supply themselves with food and water for another long period.Some smaller desert animals make a hole below the surface of the soil or sand to escape the high temperatures at the desert surface.

Certain desert lizards (蜥蝎) are active during the hottest seasons，and move extremely rapidly over hot surfaces，stopping in cooler “islands” of shade.Even their legs may be longer so they absorb less surface heat while running.

The Pow Wow(印第安人的帕瓦仪式)is held annually at the Trail of Tears Commemorative Park in Hopkinsville，Kentucky.The Pow Wow provides an opportunity for participants to celebrate the great heritage of the American Indian through dance，drumming and singing，traditional foods，crafts and storytelling.For the visitors，it provides an exceptional educational experience.

The idea for hosting a Pow Wow in Hopkinsville was developed by the Trail of Tears Commission in 1988 as a way to commemorate(纪念)the 150th anniversary of the cruel Cherokee removal from their ancestral homelands in the southeast，across the Mississippi to Indian Territory，which is now Oklahoma.Known as the“trail of tears”，this forced removal affected Hopkinsville，which was along the trail，and served as a major stopping point for the Cherokees during the freezing winter of 1838 and 1839.

The president and founder of the Trail of Tears Commission，Beverly Baker，began work in late 1985 to gain support for his idea for a commemorative park，and to encourage interest in acknowledging this event in local history.Volunteers joined Baker in pursuing support of the park and designation(指定)of the Trail of Tears as a National Historic Trail.City and county governments，and a church offered$1,000 in seed money to the group.And then other help came.

A proclamation(宣言)by the governor set 1988 as the Year of the Trail of Tears.In 1992，the Pow Wow celebrated the Year of the American Indian.The state provided money to help develop the Pow Wow grounds as the Trail of Tears Commemorative Park，which opened in 1993.In 1996，the National Park Service designated the park as a site on the National Historic Trail of Tears—the first nonfederal property to receive this designation.Since 1989，Pow Wow’s own income has supported development，operation，and maintenance of the park and its heritage center.School and scout groups，local clubs，and tourists regularly visit the park and center.
