Viewers learn about adaptations of plants, animals, and humans through a collection of four Animal League videos. Host Britt Garner discusses behavioral and physical adaptations like camouflage. Also featured are unique adaptions like that of the Texas short-horned lizard that shoots blood out of its eyes. The series ends with a discussion of natural selection and of why animals appear to be getting smaller.
