Final Answer (Sorted):



| walk/run | hop | fly | swim |
|--------------|---------|---------|----------|
| Horse | Rabbit | Crow | Whale |
| Deer | Kangaroo| Pigeon | |
| Lion | | | |

---

Explanation:


- Walk/Run: Land animals that move on legs without hopping or flying — horse, deer, lion.
- Hop: Animals that move by jumping on strong hind legs — rabbit, kangaroo.
- Fly: Birds that use wings to fly — crow, pigeon.
- Swim: Aquatic animals that live in water — whale.

> Note: While some animals like the kangaroo can walk slowly, their primary mode is hopping. Similarly, birds like the crow and pigeon are primarily flyers.

This classification helps children learn about animal locomotion in a fun and visual way.
