Some monkeys enjoy living high up in the tree tops.
They are good climbers and love monkey-ing about.
Monkeys eat fruits, insects, plants and they don't even mind the odd bird egg.
They use their strong arms to swing from branch to branch, firmly holding on with their hands. |

The most remarkable feature of a bird are the feathers.
A bird depends on its feathers for its powers of flight.
The wing feathers must not become separated from each other
in flight and the whole wing must maintain a smooth surface if it is to give
lift and aerodynamic control that the bird requires.

Until recently donkeys in Australia were the object of ridicule and derision.
Although classified as vermin in Western Australia and inferior to the horse, donkeys are being kept
as pets more and more. Instead of donkeys being tinned as pet food they are now
often sold as love-able pets to eager buyers. |

Sharks are the best hunters in the sea and beautiful creatures of the deep.
With their sharp teeth and strong jaws they can tear up seals, turtles,
fish, people and if they get really annoyed they'll even tear up a small boat.

soon swim away. |
