1. The Essential Question What makes a mammal a mammal? In order to answer this question, you will: 1.Explore some mammals on the internet at 2.Study food, habitat, predators, social structure and birth & offspring of specific mammals. Mammals are warm- blooded animals that have hair for insulation and nurse their infants with milk. The 4,000 species are an extremely diverse group. The smallest bat weighs 0.05oz, while the Blue whale weighs 100 million times as much. The number of offspring ranges from 1 to 27, and the life span ranges from less than 1 year to over 70 years.
