Wetlands
Boas, raccoons, parakeets, herons, anteaters
To blend in with this dark environment many fish and crayfish are dark
and dull in color. This monotonous color acts as camouflage and helps
creatures avoid being seen by larger animals and birds that want to eat
them.
Wetland animals that spend part of their time underwater or in areas
where oxygen is not as readily available, breathing is not so easy. Some of
these animals have evolved special gills to help them breathe, while
others limit their activity levels when oxygen is low. Some wetland
shellfish can rest and use less oxygen by closing their shells. Frogs have
specially adapted skin that allows them to spend time in the water. These
noisy croakers can absorb oxygen through their skin when underwater.
Wetland birds have developed adaptations that help them catch
food. Some birds, such as the heron, have become experts in
spearfishing. These tall birds use their long necks to sink their sharp beaks
into the water like a spear when a fish swims past. Ducks, however, use
their wide, flat beaks as a sieve to filter food from the water.
