Understanding Flight in Animals

The video explores Squeaks' anxiety about flying and how learning about flight can help. It discusses various animals with wings, such as birds, bats, and insects, and their unique flying methods. The albatross is highlighted for its long-distance flight, while bees are noted for their short, frequent flights. Penguins are unique as they use their wings to swim underwater. The video concludes by reflecting on the diverse adaptations of flying animals.
