Adaptation Design a Species

What is adaptation? The way animals and plants become better at living in their habitat. Adaptations allow species to live successfully in their habitat. Species living in different habitats need different adaptations.

Marine habitat

Movement Yellowfin tuna

Communication Giant cuttlefish Humpback whale

Regulating body temperature Walrus Sea otter

Camouflage Pygmy seahorse

Escaping predators Five-lined snapperGulf torpedo ray Purple sea urchin

Effective hunting Emperor penguinGreat white shark Yellow-bellied sea snake

Design your own species! Divide into small groups Each group will be given a habitat card and either predator or prey card Think about the species that live in your habitat and what adaptations they have to help them survive. For example polar bears have large paws with retractable claws to help them dig into snow in their icy habitats. Now design your own species for the habitat you have been given!

Meet the spiny skipper – a prey species adapted for the marine environment.

Things to think about… What does it eat? Is it brightly coloured or camouflaged? How does it move? Does it live with other members of the same species? How does it keep warm / cool? Where does it live? E.g. trees? Burrows? Underground? How big is it?
