A camel is a funny animal because it has a big hump
on its back. A camel's hump is its own built-in food
cupboard. It lives off the fat stored in its hump. It can
live up to two weeks without eating! This is a good thing
for a camel to have because they live in the desert where
food and water are hard to find.
Have you ever seen an elephant up close? They have
funny long noses they use like hands. They
use their trunks to pull down leaves and branches to eat. It
also makes a great hose. Elephants can squirt dust or water
... over themselves to keep cool. They "shake trunks" to say
hello to each other just as we shake hands. With their trunks, they can pick up
something as small as a button.
CIRCLE THE TWO ELEPHANTS BELOW THAT ARE ALIKE.
Help this kangaroo
find the funny animals
to the right.

What\s wrong with this picture?
Did you know
that a thirsty camel
can drink 10 buckets
of water in just 10
minutes? How many
buckets of water
could a thirsty camel
drink in just 25
minutes?

Many animals may seem strange when we look at them at first, but if we look
a little closer we will see that nature has a reason for giving these creatures certain
qualities. For instance, a giraffe has developed a long neck to reach leaves high in
the branches of trees. Because of this, it will have plenty of food. No other animal
can reach that high. An armadillo has a hard shell on its back to protect it from
predators and the hot sun. A rabbit has long ears to help it hear for dangers ahead.
It also has large hind legs to maybe help it run faster than its predator!
