ENVIRONMENTAL PRESSURES Food Scarce (Ambush Predator) Extreme Weather ( Shedding Body Parts, Colonial) Hunting (Camouflage, Social)

FOOD SCARCE Food Scarce is a pressure in the environment that has lack of food. If the animal lacked of food, they will all not going to get the suitable nutrients for their daily needs, be dying, and eventually die. With that in mind, animals need to adapt to several strategies. One of them is Ambush Predator
4
AMBUSH PREDATOR This change is needed to overcome the species it fights with. This is a strategy that is using more towards its stealth, intelligence, and camouflage ability, rather than its physical abilities, like speed and strength. After it spotted its enemy, it directly surprises the animal, attack it, and eventually kill it. This is definitely a safer strategy of catching and killing, because the animal that attack its enemy is not exposed and seen, or doing a camouflage, which is harder for its enemy to spot and kill. The well-known predators are Tiger, and Monkey.

EXTREME WEATHER Extreme Weather is a pressure in the environment that has really hot or cold weather. During the day, when the weathers get unsuitable for the animal, they are really harsh, and the animal could die. Because of this, animals has to adapt. Some of the strategies includes shedding body parts, and colonial.
7
SHEDDING BODY PARTS This change is needed to make the animal survive in extraordinary weather. When the weather is extremely hot, they shed almost all of their skin, leaving a very thin skin with fur, just to give more protection against dust and sand. The thin skin is going to release heat better, more breathable, while still keeping the body cool and comfortable. Its fur will also change in terms of color, depending on its environment. If any predators are about to attack it, it can release its tail, and grew back up. The tail is still wiggling, so the predators will think that it’s their prey, and chases them, while the animal itself ran away and saves itself. This means it sheds away all unnecessary body parts, while still maintaining their benefits.

HUNTING Hunting is a pressure in the environment that is from human activities. Human kills or hurt the animal to take its body parts for economy, or other things. With this, the population of animal will decrease. Because of this, animals have to adapt, like doing camouflage or living in social groups
10
COLONIAL This strategy is needed to survive in extreme weather. In cold, freezing weather, they can make colonial groups and survive the rest of period of weather together. They live very close against each other, cuddling them, so they have the warmth they need. It will also protect them from storms that these weathers carry.

CAMOUFLAGE This strategy is needed because of hunting, especially from people. This reduces their chance of living. Therefore, they need to do camouflage. This strategy avoids the animal to be eaten or killed. Camouflage helps them to suit with their environment, having the same color and similar shapes to the surrounding, so it is not seen. The stripes on the fur make it almost impossible for their predators to spot them. Grass will also be all over their body, to make itself not that much different to trees. People hunt them mainly because their body parts are really rare, or expensive to sell, which makes profit to them. One of the most common cases are from tigers, snakes, and also elephant. People used their body parts as daily product. People killed tiger because they attack people who want to take their skin for coats, carpets, and several others. Snakes are also killed for their skin, but it’s mainly for fashion wear, like shoes, bags, or others. Elephants are hunted because of their tusks, mainly for human use, like billiard balls, piano keys, or even personal collection. They are mainly killed, but some of them can still survive with a badly injured condition.

SOCIAL This strategy is a way of this animal live by preventing itself from being hunted. They will live in a group with their own species, and they cooperate with each other. They can work together to defend a territory, or even helping to protect themselves or their group. The animal divides its roles into care of the young, or reproductive division. The male will protect the young, and because of that, it has added claws. The female, will have 2 sexual organs so that it can reproduce in itself.

SUPERIOR ANIMAL This superior animal can cope with three environmental pressures, which are Hunted by people, food scarce, and extreme weather. They can camouflage through having grass allover their body along with stripes than resembles grass and trees, as well as social, which they will live together both for reproductive division and protection for the young, which are both strategies for being hunted. When food scarce, they use the ambush predator strategy to help them kill their preys with ease. When it has extreme weather, like really hot, it shed its fur to be cooler and more comfortable, and also colonial way of living, kind of living together and cuddling each other to maximize warmth. Morphological: It has got 2 spikes on its head, 4 on its neck, 4 on its body, 2 on its hands, and 2 on its leg. It also has got I spiky tail. Along the neck and body there are 9 pieces of grass, with 2 in the hand and 2 on the leg. It has got 2 hands and 2 legs, with 2 large claws. It has got 3 fingers, 2 toes, 2 eyes, and 2 sexual organ, both male and female. Physiological: They have large head with large brain in it so it is intelligent enough to live in their environment. It has long big stomach to store lots of food, water and fat that all can be converted into energy. It has strong muscles all throughout its body to provide the strength it needs, and especially on the legs, which are long, to run faster, jump higher, along with their hands that should provide plenty of stability when doing these activities. It has long neck so that it can see higher up, in which can increase its sight. All of its spikes are equipped with highly poisonous toxic, to protect itself from its severe predators, and it also helps to weaken or kill its prey for it to eat. It has got 2 sexual organs, so that it can reproduce on itself and can reduce the risk of it being extinct. Behavioral: they are carnivores, so they eat other animals. They have a carnivore head, which are big, and has sharp teeth to crunch their meal. They also have 2 spikes on either sides on their hands, so that they can kill their prey with ease. They have 2 long legs to add speed with flat feet and a tail along with two hands to add stability when running at high speed. They have two big eyes on either side of its face so that it can have a clear sight of where they are going. They lay eggs. It laid eggs because animals who uses this system has faster process to reproduce, so it can live longer because it has more species. It will also feature 2 sexual organs to reproduce in itself. They have spikes on their neck, body, tail, and feet, as well as a large claws on its arm to protect them from any harmful contact from their predator. They will also use the spikes and claws to attack its prey
