Blue jays live in wooded forests all over North America and in close proximity to people and food sources. Learn about how blue jays find food through bird feeders and plants with berries with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Green rat snakes live all over the United Snakes, particularly in desert areas. While rat snakes occasionally climb trees, they are are typically found on the ground. Find out more about how green rat snakes live with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Great horned owls have a tremendous range. They can be found from Canada to Mexico, from coast to coast, in all different kinds of habitats. Learn about the preferred habitat for great horned owls with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Eagles live on all continents except Antarctica, and are usually found living in tall trees near a body of water. Discover how bald eagles are able to catch their prey in the water with insight from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Rattlesnakes are most commonly found living in the central and southern parts of the United States where climates are warmer. Look for rattle snakes hiding under rocks and bushes with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Mallard ducks live in many parts of the world and often migrate from north to south in order to find food during the winter. Learn about how mallard ducks feed on the grass at the bottom of a body of water with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Woodpeckers are found living worldwide, except for some islands and extreme polar regions. They are commonly found in the heavily wooded areas along the eastern United States. Find out why woodpeckers are considered a fringe species with insight from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
The most common habitats for black bears are forested areas in North America where climbing trees and food sources are readily available. Keep your distance from a black bear that is spotted in the wild with advice from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Bull snakes live in wooded, desert and prairie areas throughout North America. While they are not venomous, it is important to keep your distance from any snake. Learn more about the bull snake living environment with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Ostriches live in the wild savanna areas of Africa, where there are very few trees and little water. Find out how ostriches are now farmed for meat in the United States with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
The American peregrine falcon is considered one of the most widespread birds of prey and can be found throughout the world. Look for peregrine falcons in tall trees or mountain tops with help from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Robins are popular birds that live in forested areas, as well as urban and suburban areas where there are small amounts of grass. Learn about the migratory habits of robins with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Frogs live in almost every ecosystem in the world, except for polar regions, and are very diverse. Look for frogs in rain forests, near water or in trees with insight from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Hawks live all over the world in diverse habitats, particularly forests, woodlands, open fields and any place with high places to nest. Find out how hawks, like many birds of prey, like to have a high vantage point for hunting with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
The natural living environment of hedgehogs is found in Europe and Africa, in both cold and tropical climates. Hedgehogs from cold areas tend to hibernate through the winter. Learn more about hedgehog habitats with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Koalas, like all marsupials except the North American opossum, are found only in Australia because they migrated there when the earth was one large land mass. Because Australia is an island, it is impossible for koalas to migrate to other continents. Find out more about koalas with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Cardinals are popular around bird feeders and in wooded areas where seeds are readily available. Look for the distinct red color of cardinals in forests throughout the United States with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Pelicans live on almost all continents near coast lines, where they can feed on fresh water and salt water fish. Look for pelicans near bay areas with advice from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Tigers used to live throughout Asia and the Middle East, but due to habitat destruction, they are now found primarily in India in the West and China and Southeast Asia. Find out how to prevent the extinction of the remaining wild tigers with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Bacteria lives everywhere including surfaces, inside of the body and inside of other bugs and animals. Find out how important bacteria is for digestion and decomposition with information from a science teacher in this free video on bacteria.
Manatees live in shallow parts of the ocean where sunlight is able to penetrate the water and encourage sea grass growth. Learn how to protect manatees from boat strikes in shallow bays with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Spiders live all over the world, including trees, dry areas, wet areas, under ground and in the oceans. Discover the different varieties of spiders on the earth with information from a science teacher in this free video on spider habitats.
Minnows live throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Africa, in cold, glacial lakes and warm tropical areas. Learn about the diverse habitats of minnows with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Monkeys live in diverse environments around the world, including the jungles of Central and South America, and the forests of Asia. Identify the differences between new world and old world monkeys with tips from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Rabbits live all over the world on every continent except Antarctica. They can be found in snowy areas, woodland regions and tropical regions. Find out the differences between rabbits and hares with information from a science teacher in this free video on animal habitats.
Animals are an important part of every ecosystem and environment. They are set apart from other living things by their multicellular bodies, the ability to digest food in an internal chamber and their motility. Nearly all animals undergo some form of sexual reproduction and require energy from sunlight. Different animals have evolved different characteristics for the various ecosystems. In this free video series on animal habitats, a science teacher explains where different animals live. Find out where blue jays live, where rabbits live and where great horned owls live. Learn about the living environment of koalas, black bears and mallard ducks. Even get information on the habitats of tigers, pelicans and manatees.
