Animal Instinct – All creatures that live in hot sunny environments have different natural defences and habitats that help protect them from the sun. Can you research the answers to the following questions;

1. How are meerkats adapted to bright sunlight? Clue- circles.

2. How do elephants protect their skin from the sun? Clue- dirt.

3. How does a tortoise protect its head from the sun? Clue- shell.

4. What do dogs and cats have to protect their skin? Clue- soft

Now design your own animal that is adapted to survive in a hot habitat. Think about what features it will need.

Have a super day Wolves! We look forward to seeing some of your learning on the Discussion for this week.
