Today is the turn to talk about AQUATIC ANIMALS. This kind of animals can swim, so they can stay under the water during long time periods. In this category we include animals which are all her life in the water and animals which can be in the water and in the land.

Among the first type we can find animals which eat little aquatic plants or animals which eat other aquatic animals. But not all of these animals are equal, because there are animals which can breathe under the water, like fish, and others which have to go outside of the water, like dolphins. In this group are included, among others, all the different types of fish, the octopus and some mammals. The aquatic mammals are, for example, the dolphin or the whale.

The aquatic animals can live in the different types of water: river, sea, ocean or lakes.

GROUND ANIMALS

Hi children!

Today we are going to learn something about the GROUND ANIMALS. This type of animals can walk the land, but they can't fly or swim. All the ground animals have bones and they have their body covered of hair.

These animals usually have got four legs and they are mammals. The mammals' animals are born from the womb of their mother and they eat her milk when they are babies. Besides, they usually have got a snout and a lot of teeth in their mouth.

We can see ground animals around the world. A lot of them live near us, such as the cats, the horses or the cows. However, other ground animals live in faraway places, for example the monkeys in the jungle or the camels in the desert.
