Do
you know that the kangaroo can't walk at all, but it
can travel at 40
miles an hour?
This amazing animal is very good at jumping.
It can jump 20 feet at a time.
An adult kangaroo is only five feet tall, but it can jump over a car. |
The
camel can live without water for one week.
It can walk over 200 miles in the desert without drinking water.
It can do this because it has three stomachs that hold water.
And the hump on its back holds fat, so the camel can live without food
for a long time, too. |
The
chimpanzee is a very intelligent animal that is good at learning
language.
A chimpanzee can learn to use sign language, but it can't always use
correct grammar. For example, a chimpanzee can use sign language to say,
"Me want banana now," but not, "I want a banana now,
please." |
