  1. Animal Adaptations Science Projectby Debra Sutherland I have a long neck. I can eat the leaves on tall trees. I look white. It’s hard for predators to see me in the white snow. Can you tell what the next animal is?

  2. I live in the water. Most of the time, I stay in the Arctic.

  3. In the Arctic it’s very cold. But I don’t mind. I can survive because my body has a big layer of fat all around it called blubber. The blubber helps me to stay warm inside.

  4. Some animals have a fin on their back called a dorsal fin. I don’t have one. This makes it easier for me to swim underfloating ice.

  5. When I dive down deep, my warm blood goes from my skin to the inside of my body. This keeps heat inside my body and it takes more oxygen to important places like my brain and heart.

  6. When I come to the surface, I breathe in air through a blowhole. When I dive I hold my breath and close my blowhole.

  7. I have a BIG forehead that sticks out. It’s called a melon. To help me know where I am, I make noises and listen for echoes. Some scientists think my melon helps me to do this. Click To Hear Me

  8. I am a beluga whale. By the way, the word beluga comes from the Russian word for white. That’s how I got my name.
