C

A sugar glider is a mammal. It has fur and feeds its young milk. Sugar gliders can jump long distances from tree to tree. They have flaps of loose skin on their sides. These flaps help them stay in the air. A woodpecker is a bird. It has feathers, two wings, and a beak. Woodpeckers have strong beaks. They use their beaks to drill into wood to hunt for food. A Madagascar day gecko is a reptile. It has scaly, waterproof skin. Many geckos have special pads on their toes. The pads help them climb up plants and rocks. An Amazon tree boa is a reptile. It has scaly, waterproof skin. Tree boas eat small mammals, birds, lizards, and frogs. Tree boas only need to eat once every few months!
