A «natural habitat» is the place where a living creature lives and finds everything it needs — food, water, and shelter. Habitats differ greatly around the world, and each one has its own residents that are adapted to live there.

A «forest» is a habitat thick with green trees, home to animals like monkeys, birds, and deer. A «desert» is a dry habitat with little rain, hot during the day and cold at night, home to camels and snakes that can handle very little water.

The «ocean» is a vast water habitat home to fish, whales, and sea turtles, which breathe and swim in ways suited to life underwater. Every living creature adapts to its habitat in amazing ways so it can survive and grow there.
