The Evolution Way

Guess who I am while I tell you about myself. I'll tell you what I look like, what I eat and where I live. I'll give you other clues to help you guess. Then you can look at my picture to see if you were right.

HOW ABOUT SOME JOKES FIRST? Why do mother kangaroos hate rainy days? Because their kids have to play inside. Why do gorillas have big nostrils? Because they have big fingers. Why do giraffes have long necks? Because their feet stink. What time is it when you see a crocodile? Time to run. How do you spell “mousetrap” with only three letters? C.A.T.

Is it… ? red? (What color is it?) dangerous? edible? (Can we eat it?) a pet? (Can we keep it in our house?) fat? tall? big? underground?

Can it… ? fly? sing? swim? hop? hover? jump? crawl? dive? gallop?

Has it got…? four legs? fur? stripes? a tail? claws? wings? a shell? tentacles?

Does it live in (the)… ? Taiwan? jungle? zoo? water? sky? cave? farm? swamp? pond? desert?

Mosquito Is it a pest? Is it dangerous to people? Is it an insect? Can we see it in the garden? Can it suck the dew or human blood? Can it fly high in the sky? Does it live in the water? Does it have wings? Does it have four legs?
