Why Do Animals Molt and Shed?
Why Do Animals Do That?
Animal bodies truly have some amazing adaptations. Sometimes we're so accustomed to them that we don't realize how fascinating they are. That may be the case with shedding. Cat or dog hair around the house may seem commonplace until we consider the pet's body is preparing for a new season. And anyone who has found a snakeskin abandoned on the ground will realize what a remarkable adaptation molting is. This accessible book explains the concepts of molting and shedding and highlights the animals that undergo these processes. Memorable images of wildlife and a graphic organizer help readers retain important science content.
