Mammals are a group of animals that share certain physical characteristics. These include having fur or hair, being warm-blooded, and giving birth to live young. Unlike other animals that lay eggs, mammals nurse their young with milk that is produced by the mother. Mammals come in different shapes and sizes, from tiny shrews to huge elephants. They can have different patterns and colours of fur, such as stripes on a tiger or spots on a leopard. Mammals are found all over the world, and some common examples include dogs, cats, bats, and whales. Creating a poster about mammals can be a fun and educational activity for children to learn more about these fascinating creatures. By identifying the different shapes, patterns, and colours of fur, children can gain a greater understanding and appreciation for the diversity of life on our planet.
