Well, animal adaptation hmmm? I think 'll do one on the dolphin. Dolphins have a streamlined shape to help slip easily through water. And their blowholes are on the top of their heads so they can just bob their forehead up above the water to breathe. Their tail flukes are nor made of bone, therefore they are not stiff and heavy. That large bulge on their head is known as the melon and that is what produces the echolocation. Even in the dark a dolphin can use echolocation to see' its surroundings!! ^^ Pretty neat huh?

I got a Drac one...
Crocodiles!!
They have their eyes and nose on the top of their heads so they can stay submerged and still see their surrondings. Their scaly, tough hides give them camoflauge and body armour. Their teeth are specially designed to hold their prey so it can't escape. They can hold their breath for like, and hour or 30 minutes or something like that, and their eyelids have a clear covering so they can see clearly under water, no matter how murkey.
How drac are crocodiles?
Woo hoo!! :dance: :dance:

I shall do...the Utahraptor Cheetah!
The cheetah is light and thin, allowing it to run at high speeds. Its tail is long so it can keep balanced while sprinting. However, it cannot run for long periods of time. Their claws are unretractable in order to give them grip on the ground, and their spotted coat allows them to hide in the tall grass of their natural habitat.

Ok I have another one!
Humpback whale
The Humpback whale has a collpsable rib cage so it can withstand lots of pressure when it dives. They sing to attract a mate, which I think is pretty darn cool!
Their tail flukes have different patterns on them so individuals can be recognized!
They also have a thick layer of blubber to prtect from the cold.
