Animal Behaviors

Animal behaviors are the ways animals act and respond to their environment, shaped by instincts, experiences, and needs. These behaviors include finding food, defending against predators, caring for their young, and communicating with others. They can be instinctive, like a spider spinning a web, or learned, like a dog obeying commands. Understanding these behaviors helps us appreciate how animals survive, adapt, and interact within their ecosystems. By studying behaviors, scientists learn how animals thrive and how human activities impact their lives.
