Study Notes
Snow Tigers
- Snow tigers are not a species of tiger, but are actually white Bengal tigers.
- They are born without pheomelanin, a pigment that gives typical orange or golden coloring.
- Snow tigers have snow-colored fur and dark stripes.
- There are very few living snow tigers today, and they are all found in captivity (zoos and circuses).
Horses
- Horses need a balanced diet to be healthy and have energy.
- They eat grass and hay at meal time, and concentrates (a mixture of grains like corn and oats) if they do a lot of work.
- They eat fruits and vegetables at snack time, and also like sugar and salt.
- Horses drink lots of water along with their food.
Crabs
- There are over 4,000 different kinds of crabs.
- Most crabs are scavengers, eating whatever they can find and catch (dead or alive).
- Crabs can be carnivores (eating meat) or omnivores (eating both meat and plants).
- Crabs have slightly different diets depending on their environment.
Hippos
- Hippos are large African animals that spend most of their time submerged in water.
- As herbivores, they eat only plants, mainly short grasses.
- Hippos can graze for up to six hours each night.
