ANIMAL WORLD
Aimal world is diverse. Their life- style determines the habitat and vise versa. Some build their own houses while others use houses that do not belong to them. There are also ones who are born with their own house,isn't it?
Camel, the ship of the desert, has a hump to store food and water as its habitet usually is dry land. Similarly, penguines which are aquatic, flightless birds use the shape of their body to dive into the water to find food and be safe from any predators. When we talk about the habitat, have you heard about creatures whose apparance changes according to where they are. It is said that they have mastered the art of camouflage and mimicry which they use to hide from predators.
Some work from dawn to dusk to build their houses while others may just intrude. As we have heard, the cuckoo is one such parasitic bird which lays its eggs in the crows' nest to get their nestlings fed by crow parents. It is believed that some snakes too are parasitic. They live in hills which are built by termites.
At the some time it is impressive to see groups of animals get together to build incredible structures. Bee hives, ant colonies are such fine examples. Have you seen the large number of bird nests built by entire flocks on one big tree?
Some creatures are blessed with their own shelter. The tortoise, the snail and the conch are a few such examples. Whenever they are threatened they swiftly hide inside their shell.
Anmal world is amazing. But we can see these wonders of nature, only if we are good observers.
Thanks watching for you!!!
