There are four main species of kangaroos found only in Australia: the Red kangaroo, Eastern Grey kangaroo, Western Grey kangaroo, and Antilopine kangaroo. Kangaroos live in habitats across Australia like bushland, woodland, forests, grasslands and scrublands. They are the only large animals that hop for transportation and can reach speeds up to 60 km/hr. Kangaroos live in mobs and have few predators like dingoes, wedge-tailed eagles, and humans, though they also had many extinct predators. They are herbivores that eat grasses and shrubs.

Kangaroo presentation
Kangaroos are found in the grasslands and woodlands of Australia where they live in large groups called mobs. They have soft gray or brown fur, muscular hind legs and a strong tail that allow them to hop at speeds up to 70 mph. Kangaroos are herbivores that eat grass and leaves and have adaptations like the ability to go without water for long periods and use their claws to dig for water when needed. They carry their young in pouches and have become endangered due to habitat loss.
Kangaroos
Kangaroos are found primarily in eastern Australia but also parts of New Guinea and Tasmania. Male kangaroos are called boomers and females are called flyers. Tree kangaroos have grasping hands and leaping hind legs that allow them to be excellent climbers. Kangaroos communicate through drumming their large feet and rest by leaning on their elbows similar to humans. They have big feet and long tails and eat grass, shrubs and sometimes berries. Baby kangaroos are called joeys and live in their mother's pouch for 6-8 months. Red kangaroos are the largest type at up to 6 feet tall. Kangaroos can leap up to 30 feet and

Walruses
Walruses are marine mammals that live in the Arctic and Pacific oceans. They travel by swimming or walking on land using their flippers. Walruses eat clams and soft-bodied animals like worms, gastropods, and crustaceans. They use their large tusks to catch food or defend themselves against threats. Walruses must adapt to harsh Arctic winters by migrating, getting into piles to stay warm, or using their tusks to break ice if trapped underneath.
Tasmanian devil power point
The Tasmanian devil is a carnivorous marsupial found in Tasmania. It prefers wet forest and woodland habitats, emerging at night to scavenge carrion with its highly developed sense of smell. Males can grow up to 90cm long and weigh over 8kg, while females are typically smaller. Tasmanian devils breed between March and April and give birth to young that develop in their pouch. They are mostly solitary but will congregate to feed on large carcasses.
Elephant
Elephants live in family groups called herds led by the oldest female, the matriarch. They communicate using low frequency sounds inaudible to humans. Elephants are the largest living land animals, with African bush elephants weighing up to 13,000 pounds. They use their trunks for tasks like eating, drinking, and touching, and males also use tusks for defense, digging, and boring.
Snow leopards[1]
Snow leopards are a solitary cat species found in Central and South Asia. They have long grey fur with black spots that helps them camouflage in their mountainous habitat. Snow leopards primarily prey on wild goats, sheep, and deer. They are classified as an endangered species due to habitat loss and poaching for their fur. Zoos aim to simulate their natural habitat with logs, dens, and vegetation to maintain their solitary behaviors.

Description of Giant Panda (animal)
The giant panda is a bear native to central and southwest China. It has black and white fur and grows up to 1.8 meters long. Males can weigh up to 350 pounds while females weigh around 170-280 pounds. Giant pandas primarily eat bamboo and can consume 20-30 pounds per day. They are generally solitary and define territories. Breeding occurs between March and May, gestation ranges 3-5 months, and cubs reach sexual maturity at 4-8 years old. Their habitat is in mountain forests in central China.
Hyena
Spotted hyenas live in savannas and grasslands in Africa. They have a complex social structure dominated by females. Females develop enlarged clitorises that allow them to give birth but make it difficult to distinguish males from females. Pregnant females pass high levels of male hormones to their developing cubs, making the cubs more aggressive and the females more muscular. Mating is complicated due to the female anatomy. Females give birth to litters of 2-4 cubs and care for them until they are 12-18 months old, while males play no role in raising the young.
Jaguars
Jaguars live in rainforests and areas with trees and rivers in South America and the southern United States. They have an average lifespan of 12-15 years and weigh between 100-250 pounds. Jaguars prey includes fish, turtles, deer, peccaries, and tapirs. They rarely attack humans.
Penguins
Penguins live in the southern half of the world, especially in Antarctica, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, South America, and some islands. They prefer cold climates near the sea. Their diet consists mainly of fish, squid, and krill. Their predators include seals, polar bears, sharks, and killer whales. There are 17 different penguin species that vary in size, from the smallest Adelie penguin to the largest Emperor penguin. Penguins have black backs and white fronts, flippers for swimming, and cannot fly.
The koala
Koalas live in eucalyptus trees in Australia, where they sleep up to 20 hours per day. They weigh between 4-14 kg depending on age and eat eucalyptus leaves, bark, and fruit. Koalas are nocturnal and solitary mammals threatened by habitat loss as humans cut down trees. There are currently only an estimated 2,000-8,000 koalas left in the world.
Black panthers #3
A black panther is a type of large cat that can be black jaguars, black leopards, or rarely black tigers. They live in forests, swamps, and grasslands in Africa and Asia.

evolution of mammals by davendran
Mammals evolved from synapsid ancestors during the Mesozoic era. The earliest mammals had specialized teeth, small bodies, and various skeletal adaptations including differentiated dentition. The three main modern mammal groups are monotremes, marsupials, and placentals. Key mammalian adaptations include hair, three middle ear bones derived from jaw bones, and a four-chambered heart and diaphragm. Mammals exhibit diverse diets, habitats, and locomotion across nearly 4000 living species.

National animal of australia
The red kangaroo is the official animal of Australia and appears on the Australian coat of arms along with the emu, the official bird. Red kangaroos are found in central Australia and prefer open plains with shade trees. They feed at night and in early morning on grasses and small plants. Though common, their numbers can drop during drought when they must compete with livestock for resources and face threats from dingoes. Red kangaroos breed year-round and females carry joeys in their pouches for 6-8 months until they are mature enough to leave. They use powerful hind legs and tails to leap long distances as a means of locomotion and escape from threats.

Farming inquiry
Farming originated around 8000 BCE in the Fertile Crescent region. The first crops farmed were cereal grains like wheat and barley, as well as pulses and the bottle gourd vegetable. Sheep and goats were among the earliest domesticated animals, as they meet the criteria of being able to be bred and kept in captivity without being aggressive or panicking.
Farming
Farming is believed to have originated around 10,000 years ago in East Africa and the Middle East by First Nations peoples at the end of the Ice Age, according to scientists. The first crops grown were likely wheat and barley, as their seeds are commonly found from that era. Dogs were possibly the first domesticated animals, kept as pets starting 13,000-30,000 years ago, while sheep, goats, cattle and pigs were domesticated for food around 9000-7000 BC.
History of farming
Farming originated around 10,000 BC in an area known as the Fertile Crescent. People in this region began deliberately planting seeds from local grasses and grains that they gathered, such as barley and wheat, aided by favorable climate conditions. One of the earliest farming settlements was Catalhoyuk in present-day Turkey. Farming then spread to other parts of the world and involved domesticating animals like goats, sheep and pigs to provide food, fiber and labor. Over time, humans cultivated a wider variety of crops and domesticated additional animals, advancing early agriculture.
Inquiry questions
The first farming occurred around 10,000 years ago in areas like China, the fertile crescents of India, Egypt, and Western Asia. The earliest crops grown were wheat, barley, and peas, though the specific crops depended on location. Squash was also grown around this time. The first domesticated animals were dogs, which were used for hunting and protection of human tribes. Dogs evolved from wolves and today there are over 200 purebred dog species.
