The seeds of a tree take roots in the ground. The new tree sprouts,grows root and produces leaves all by itself. Plants can take care of themselves. But unlike plants,many animal parents must teach their young how to survive on their own.
Each baby animal grows up to live the way it's parents live. It looks, acts and sounds like animals of its own kind and like no others. For example,a lion cub learns to walk and then run. It learns to eat meat,it growls and it roars. It learns to hunt other animals for food. A baby spider grows up and does all the things spiders do. It crawls along and spins a sticky web that will catch insects to eat. A young parrot learns to fly. It knows how to crack nuts and seeds with its bill.
Every animal learns to live like the other animals of its kind. Each animal does what it must do to stay alive. That's the way of the animal world.
