    • Birds have feathers.
    • Fish and reptiles have scales.
    • Mammals legs usually end in paws.

    • Or you can call them claws if they have sharp nails.


    • Some birds also have claws and they use them for hunting.

    • Wolverine also has claws

    • On their heads, some mammals have horns.


    • Others have antlers.
    • In their mouths some mammals have fangs
    • Snakes have fangs
    too.

    • Other mammals have tusks.


    • Only two mammals have a trunk:
    • Elephants and tapirs.
    • Lions and horses have
    manes.

    • But only camels and dromedaries


    have humps.
    • Fish use their fins to move.

    • Some mammals have them too.

    • And if you thought only birds


    had beaks (a.k.a. bills)
    • You were wrong
    • Most birds use their wings to fly.

    • Some mammals and fish also have wings.

    • But instead of flying, they glide.
