The advantage of longer Henle's loop in desert animals over the shorter Henle's loop in humans is that longer loop provides greater absorption of minerals such as sodium ions, calcium ions or other ions needed for the body and restricts loss of water.
The metabolism of animals found in dry or arid regions is so designed that they can live with ease. The Henle's loop of desert animals allows greater absorption of water and thus loss of water is minimized due to the extremely concentrated urine. This limits the water needed for their survival. This allows more water to be resent back for hormonal circulation in the body. The major function of Henle's loop is to reabsorb water and sodium chloride ions which are released out by the kidney functions.
