An Academy Award-winning wildlife documentary chronicling a day in the life of the many creatures populating the desert regions of the American Southwest, this film marks the premier feature entry in Walt Disney's popular "True-Life Adventures" series of the 1950's. Narrated by Winston Hibler, the nature study includes up-close Technicolor footage of exotic plants, scorpions, rattlesnakes, roadrunners, tarantulas and more, with a flash flood providing one of nature's dramatic highlights.
