Animal Adaptations

All animals live in habitats. Habitats provide food, water, and shelter which animals need to survive, but there is more to survival than just the habitat. Animals also depend on their physical features to help them obtain food, keep safe, build homes, withstand weather, and attract mates. These physical features are called physical adaptions. Physical adaptations do no develop during an animal's life but over many generations. The shape of a bird's beak, the number of fingers, color of fur, etc... are examples of physical adaptations which help different animals to survive
