Flora and Fauna in Kuwait, Kuwait

Displayed:   times.

Due to the low annual rainfall and the lack of surface water, plants and animal life in Kuwait have adapted to the arid conditions. During the late winter and early spring, especially after an abundant rainy season, colorful desert flowers and grasses cover most of the land. Small mammals such as gerbils, hares, rabbits, and hedgehogs are common. Kuwait has also recorded approximately 300 species of birds. While only about 20 species can be found in Kuwait year long, many birds are winter visitors or passing migrants. They are attracted by the cool and wet winter months, which encourage insects and plants to flourish and thus create an ample supply of food.
