- 1. Mrs. Tully’s Classpresents: The First Annual Video Conference on Animal Habitats, Adaptations and Migrations Host Speakers: Mrs. Tully’s Class
- 2. Animal Habitats andBiomes
- 3. FACTS ABOUT THE TUNDRA/POLARREGION • The Tundra is very cold and has a lot of ice • The Tundra includes the northern lands of Europe, Asia, and North America • The Tundra is the Earth’s coldest biome
- 4. More Facts AboutThe Tundra/Polar Region • The Artic Tundra is a vast and treeless area of a low, swampy plains in the far north around the Artic Ocean. • In the Summer, a thin layer of topsoil thaws and creates many pools, lakes, and marshes where mosquitoes, midges, and blackflies hang out.
- 5. Some Facts YouShould Know About The Tundra/Polar Region• Another type of tundra is the alpine tundra. • More than 100 species of migrant birds are attracted by insect food. • Other animals that live in the Tundra include polar bears, artic foxes, and gray wolves.
- 6. • The grasslandsare hot and dry • It is perfect for growing crops when there is water • They have many different names like prairies
- 7. • The grasslands are hundreds of miles long • Be careful there are many ticks • The grassland are super cool
- 8. Deciduous Forests • Deciduoustrees loose their leaves in the fall • The natural rot of the fallen leaves on the ground enriches the soil and supports all kinds of plants and animal life • The forests has so much life

- 11. Facts about therainforest • Tropical rainforests are found in Asia, Africa, South America, Central America, and on many Pacific islands • They get more than 70 inches of rain each year
- 12. Cool Facts youshould know • It has more plants than any other biome • It is a perfect biome for over 15 million plants and animals. • The rain forest is made up of evergreen trees
- 13. Awesome Facts • Manyplants for medicine are in the rain forest • The trees in the rain forest grow between 100 and 200 feet tall • Rain forests is an endangered biome because people have cut trees and sold it as fire wood.
- 14. Water Biome • Animalsthat live in the Ocean are Whales, Sharks and other big fish. • Oceans cover about 70% of the earth’s surface.
- 15. Water Biome • Includeswetlands, lakes, rivers and oceans
- 16. Water Biome • Beavers,platypuses and alligators live near rivers .
- 17. Desert Biome • Adesert is an area where little or no life exists because of lack of water. • The deserts are usually hot or warm they are very different from the tundra and polar region.
- 18. Deserts • Some locationsof deserts are the Sahara desert, north Africa and Australia. • The climate of the desert is 10 inches of water each year. • There is not much seasonal changes all there is it changes to spring to summer. • Average temperatures during the day and night the day is 100 degrees and at night it is 40-50 degrees.
- 19.

- 21. Adaptations • Animals ofall shapes and sizes inhabit the Earth’s land • Adaptations develop over many years and get passed on from parents
- 22. Physical Adaptations Examples ofphysical adaptations are: • Being able to move very smoothly and quickly • Having sharp claws to attack there predators • Having the ability to attack there prey at any time
- 23. Behavioral Adaptations • Havingthe ability to camouflage with their surroundings • Having a special appearance when they approach there predators • Moving to new places to live
- 24. Mimicry • Butterfly • Oneis poisonous so it can protect it’s self and one is not.
- 25. Avoidance • Monkeys • Theystay away from predators high in the trees or where their predator can’t get them.
- 26. Facts about specialmouth parts • Special mouth parts is when a animal helps a other animal like the bird to get food or water so it can survive • Birds have a special mouth part to help them suck the juice out of the flower
- 27. More information aboutspecial mouth parts • Special mouth parts can be found on a bee or some types of birds • Bee’s need special mouth parts to get their honey back to their hive
- 28. More information youshould know about special mouth parts • Birds need special mouth parts to get food and water so they can survive • Special mouth parts are very important to all animals that use special mouth parts By, Brenna Linnane
- 29. Escape • The abilityto use speed against the enemy to outrun or escape • Examples of animals with this ability are Deer, Ostriches, Cheetahs, Jaguars, Antelopes, etc. • A good example is when the deer runs away from a Lion
- 30. Protective Coloration • Ananimal uses camouflage with it’s surroundings so the enemy won’t notice them • Examples of animals with this ability are the arctic hare, chameleon, seals, etc. • A good example is when the chameleon changes color to match its surroundings
- 31. Protective Resemblance • Itis when a animal looks like something else to stay alive • The walking stick is a great example it looks like a stick • The sandfish is another good one it looks like sand
- 32. Body covering • Somethingthat protects the animal from dieing • Like a turtle and it’s shell • Not many people know this by the poison dart frog
- 33. Being able tosee in the dark • An animal can see in the dark • Bat can see in the dark so they can get food • Owl can see in the dark
- 34. Special Weapons Lots ofdifferent animals use special weapons Special weapons come in all shapes and sizes Some animals have sharp points that hurt their predators Mostly smaller animals use special weapons
- 35. Group Defense Lots ofanimals use group defense Group defense is used to make it so if a animal tries to take them all they can take it down Big herbivores normally use group defense
- 36. Chemical Weapons A tonof animals use chemical weapons to hunt It helps them kill their prey The Gila Monster uses
- 37. HIBERNATION • Hibernating isescaping from the cold for the winter in a safe place • These animals will sleep for a long period of time until it gets warmer • Hibernation is usually for the winter • It is an important part in surviving
- 38. FRIGHT • Fright issomething that animals use to survive. • It is a thing animals use to scare other animals so they won’t eat them • Fright is a good thing to have for defense and attack
- 39. More Adaptations • Thetail is a very important part in survival • Or a sharp teeth to bite something • Some body parts are adaptations to
- 40. Migration • Not allanimals migrate • Moving one place to an other is migration • It is like moving your home • A whale migrates
- 41. Playing Dead • Someanimals play dead to trick a predator • A animal does that so it won’t be eaten • Most rodents play dead
- 42.
- 43. Migration • Migration isa move that can be caused by food scarce or climate change • Most of the time an animal moves somewhere for a period of time then returns • Sometimes migration takes a lifetime to complete
- 44. Seeking Food AndWater • During winter migration birds must search harder for there pray • Some birds including hawks fly to Mexico in search of food • Animals must be careful traveling because animals are hungry
- 45. Reproductive Migration • Migrationcan happen to get young away from predator until gotten older • The green turtle swims 1,242 miles to have young • Eels swim from North America to Puerto Rico and then stay there with young for 3 years
- 46. Wildebeest! • The wildebeesttravels almost 2,000 miles. • It lives in Serengeti Plains, Tanzania. • It migrates to Masai Mara, Kenya.
- 47. Wildebeest! • 200,000 ofthe wildebeest die in the trip. • There are 2 million wildebeest in a herd. • The wildebeest leave because of the rain. • The trip can take place for at least a couple months.
- 48. Wildebeest! • On thetrip the cheetah will try to attack the baby. • The mom will get in the way of the cheetah so it will hit her and not the baby. • On the migration trip they will eat the dead animals that are smaller then them That have been dead at least 1 week.
- 49. Gray whale migration •The Gray Whale lives in Mexico • It can travel 6,000 miles • It migrates to the arctic
- 50. Gray whale • Thereare 27,000 Gray whales left • They migrate because they travel to cold water for feeding and warm weather for giving birth
- 51. Fun facts • Killerwhales are their only predator • Gray whales are very big but they are smaller than killer whales
- 52. • The sandhillcrane migrates1,200-2,500 miles. • They will start in Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Alaska, Canada, or Siberia. • They migrate to Sulphur Springs Valley, Arizona
- 53. • Around 500,000migrate • 20,000 are from Siberia alone • But hunters, and habitat loss hurts there migration
- 54. • They travelin search of a warmer climate • They also travel to find more food • But they go back to breed
- 55. The Monarch Butterfly •The Monarch Butterfly lives in Northern America and Canada • They migrate to seek warmer weather, because in winter northern America and Canada are very cold
- 56. Monarch’s Difficulties • TheMonarch butterfly’s journey to Mexico is tough because they’re so delicate • If a rain storm falls the weight of the rain cold kill them • Logging makes the migration tough too because it ruins their habitat environment
- 57. Monarch’s Migration • TheMonarch’s migration to Mexico is 2,000 miles • They travel in a group of 300,000,000 butterflies.
- 58. The Tundra Swan •The tundra swan starts its migration at the shores of north Carolina. • The number of tundra swans that migrate is 10,000. • It migrates to The Artic Circle in Canada and Alaska.
- 59. • The tundraswan travels about 4,000 miles when it migrates. • This animal migrates because it seeks colder weather climate but will leave again before winter. • Amazingly it has no struggles along the way.
