Animal Adaptations and Behaviors

The video explores how animals adapt to their environments through physical and behavioral adaptations. It begins with a visit to the zoo, where different enclosures mimic natural habitats. Physical adaptations like camouflage and chemical defenses are discussed, followed by behavioral adaptations such as hibernation and migration. The video also touches on learned behaviors in animals living near humans.
