We created this plan for the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum with four goals in mind: Create a great guest experience; build in revenue-generating opportunities; show the diversity of the Mexican Sonora Desert; and provide superlative animal care facilities.

Following the ancient journey of a lone jaguar, guests travel from the Sea of Cortez, cross canyons and mountains, and emerge in the Mexican Sonora Desert.
GLMV Zoos completed this project for Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson, Arizona. In addition to the rich jaguar habitat, a hands-on experiential rays habitat, Mexican wolf habitat, magpie jay aviary, American crocodile underwater viewing area, and mixed amphibian and reptile habitats will be included. The exhibit includes a number of complementary, themed animal habitats and play areas to create a robust storybook experience for guests.
