An adaptation is a trait that helps living things survive in their environment. Adaptations are passed down from parents to offspring. Some animal adaptations for getting food include feet that can grip prey, special teeth, bills for catching food, and digging feet. Adaptations for protection include camouflage, armor, mimicry of other animals, and use of poison. Adaptations help animals obtain food and protect themselves in different ways.
