Animal Kingdom – Laws of Nature (sample answers).

Predators usually attack the weakest member of a group Mammals and some reptiles protect their young. Animals often stay in groups for safety. Water is critical for survival Animals will eat almost anything for food. Babies and young animals are always at risk from predators. Features which help survival enable animals to evolve.
