Bookroo's summary

Explore the fascinating world of animal adaptation, where creatures like sea slugs use stinging cells for defense. Uncover how animals camouflage, mimic, and evolve to thrive amidst habitat loss and urban challenges. Why do some animals 'see' with sound? What drives these incredible survival strategies? Dive into the mysteries of nature's resilience.

From the publisher

Certain sea slugs have developed a remarkable defensive adaptation - they can use the stinging cells of the sea anemones they eat to protect themselves. Whether adapting over millions of years or in the blink of an eye, How Do Animals Adapt? examines the ever-changing world of animals. Children will thrill at discovering: - why animals need to adapt - animals that can “see” using sounds - how animals use camouflage and mimicry to protect themselves - how wild animals have adapted to habitat loss and learned to live in cities
