Good Morning Boys and Girls!
I have been looking at all your artwork from last week and this week and it looks fantastic! After seen so many activities related to nature, it made me think of something super fun that you could try at home. It is going to be a big challenge because you will need to be very careful and detailed. Also, it is going to be such a fun challenge, I am already smiling thinking of all the great ideas you might have.
Let’s Begin!
What do you think these 3 animals have in common?
Leaf Tailed Gecko
Mountain Hare
Cameleon
Well done! All of them use their skin to protect themselves from predators, this is called Camouflage. The Mountain Hare changes its fur to white for winter season and brown for the other seasons.
Now, quick challenge, click below and see how fast you can spot the camouflaged animals.

Many animals try to hide or blend in with the background to protect themselves from predators, even big animals do it. Even though, some animals can not change the colour of their skin they use other strategies and high skills to hide. Click on the following video to learn more.
