GET MOVING

Some animals stay in one place all their lives. They do not move. For example, sponges and barnacles live attached to rocks. However, most animals can move around, and they do it in different ways.

Birds bats and insects fly.

Fish, whales and sea turtles swim.

Snakes slither.

Lizards and crocodiles crawl.

Humans, ostriches and mice walk.

Animals move at different speeds. Walking at a normal pace, human beings usually walk five or six kilometres per hour. Some animals can travel in one hour a distance that takes other animals a whole year!
