Animals that live on land, air and water worksheet - Free Printable

Let me carefully examine the image to identify which animals belong in the "LAND", "WATER", and "AIR" columns.

First, I'll list all the animals shown in the grid at the bottom:

1. Butterfly
2. Fish
3. Toucan (bird)
4. Horse
5. Sheep
6. Pig
7. Jellyfish
8. Snake
9. Octopus
10. Bird (small blue bird)
11. Elephant
12. Seahorse

Now I need to sort each one into the correct habitat:

- Land animals: live mostly on solid ground
- Horse ✔
- Sheep ✔
- Pig ✔
- Snake ✔
- Elephant ✔

- Water animals: live mostly in water (oceans, rivers, lakes)
- Fish ✔
- Jellyfish ✔
- Octopus ✔
- Seahorse ✔

- Air animals: can fly and spend significant time in the air
- Butterfly ✔ (flies)
- Toucan ✔ (bird that flies)
- Bird (small blue bird) ✔ (flies)

Wait—I should double-check if any of these are ambiguous. For example:
- Snakes live on land (some can swim, but they’re land animals).
- Seahorses live underwater, attached to coral/seaweed—definitely water.
- Birds and butterflies are classic air animals (they fly).

All 12 animals fit clearly into one category.

So the correct grouping is:

LAND: Horse, Sheep, Pig, Snake, Elephant
WATER: Fish, Jellyfish, Octopus, Seahorse
AIR: Butterfly, Toucan, Bird

But the question asks for the final answer only — and since it's a sorting task, the expected output is likely the list of items under each column.

However, the instruction says: “Final Answer: [Provide only the final correct answer.]”

Given this is a cut-and-paste activity, and no specific format is requested beyond correctness, the most appropriate final answer is to list the animals under each category clearly.

Let me confirm there are exactly 12 images and no trick items — yes, 3 rows × 4 columns = 12.

I will now provide the final answer as three grouped lists.
