Can you survive?

Animals survive based on what is around them and how their body can handle it.

Animals may not survive if:

  • There is not enough food or water
  • There are predators that eat it
  • It is too hot or too cold
  • If they cannot breathe

You can’t survive here because:

  • It is too cold for you- you don’t have fur!
  • There is no food or water that you need

​

The rabbit can’t survive here because:

  • It couldn’t breathe underwater
  • The shark is a predator that would

eat the rabbit
