Life Cycles

Another important key moment: every animal needs a place to live. Some species hide themselves in nests, dens and shelters. Some require a vast area, which provides the resources to sustain them and their families-and some need space to hide.

All living things must sustain themselves in order to live another day. Whether by consuming plant matter, or preying on others, every animal eats. Herbivores must find a good spot where they can graze and at the same time.

Some animals enjoy the company of others of their kind, and some cannot get by without the support of a group. Some are entirely dependent on others fulfilling strictly defined roles within their society.
