Answer We know that nocturnal animals come out only at night. Then what do they do during
the day time?
Diurnal Animals
Some animals wake up early and sleep at night. They search for food and remain
active during the day. Animals that are found during the day are called diurnals.
Dogs, butterflies, squirrels etc. are diurnal animals.
Groups of Animals
Most of the animals live and move in groups. There is a leader that protects all
the members of the group. They move in groups in search of food and water and
to stay safe from their enemies. Tigers, lions, zebras, cows, horses and honeybees
move in groups.
Groups of lions are called prides.
There are one or two lions and several
lionesses with their cubs in pride. A
lioness always leads the pride which
is on the hunt. If one lioness is unable
to hunt, the other lioness helps to
find the prey.
Groups of zebras, horses and cows
are called herds.
