Animal Adaptations and Survival
In Science we have begun studying habitats and what each animal needs to survive in their habitat. We learned that animals need food, water, shelter, and space. We also have learned that we can make predictions about the kinds of food an animal will eat based on characteristics of their body.
Which "beak" works best if your food source is wood grubs?
A "beak" that rips and tears works best to get the "meat" off the "bone".
We studied different beak shapes...
...and recorded our findings.
How do hummingbirds get nectar from flowers?
What characteristics will help a bird eat plants and insects in the water?
