Some Animals Live Alone. Others Live in Groups

<p> Group Behavior</p><p>Living in Groups Some animals live alone. Others live in groups. Elephant mothers and babies live in herds. The mothers help protect all of the babies. Living in groups helps the elephants survive. Getting Food Living in groups helps some animals get food. Wolves live in small groups called packs. The pack hunts together. A single wolf cannot catch big animals. But the pack can! All of the wolves get more food. Schools of Fish Some fish live in large schools. The fish swim close together. If one fish sees an enemy, it swims in a new direction. Then the whole school changes direction. It is hard for an enemy to pick out a single fish. Insect Colonies Ants live in colonies. The ants divide the work. The queen ant lays all of the eggs. Some workers take care of the eggs and young ants. Other workers find food for the colony. Sharing work helps the ants survive. Migration Some animals migrate when the weather changes. Flocks of birds fly south in winter. There is more food in the south. Older birds know the way. Younger birds follow them.
