There are 51 different species of monkey. Around Christmas time,
as the weather gets colder, monkeys grow thicker fur coats and
the all huddle together to keep warm.
So what’s the difference between a monkey and an ape? Monkey’s
are quite small and have a tail around a foot long. Apes, like
gorillas, are a lot bigger and don’t have tails.

Monkey’s and apes only eat healthy foods like apples, potatoes, bananas
(of course!), berries, beech nuts, acorns, seeds and walnuts. Really it’s
like Christmas every day for them!

Snow leopards are an endangered species. These large cats live in
Central and Northern America but now there aren’t many left.
Penguins are flightless birds that are found in the Antarctic. They
are flightless birds because over millions of years their wings
have evolved into flippers. They eat krill, fish and squid that they
catch as they swim under the water. Emperor penguins are the
largest type of penguin, they are about a meter tall.

The Fennec fox is a small nocturnal fox
that lives in North America. They are
easy to recognise because they have
huge ears. Their bat like ears loose lots
of heat to keep the foxes cool.
