The video tutorial covers the concept of animal adaptation, explaining how animals adjust to their environments to survive. It discusses three types of adaptations: morphological, physiological, and behavioral. Morphological adaptations involve changes in physical features, such as the shape of bird beaks or insect mouthparts. Physiological adaptations include internal processes like water storage in camels. Behavioral adaptations involve actions animals take, such as mimicry in chameleons or echolocation in bats. The video concludes with a summary of these adaptation strategies.
