Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given three pictures of animals and a list of mammal names. We need to match each picture with the correct name from the list.
The list of mammals is:
- Polar Bear
- Racoon (note: it's spelled “Racoon” here, though commonly “Raccoon”)
- Zebra
- Cheetah
- Dolphin
- Bat
- Hedgehog
- Platypus
- Rhinoceros
- Kangaroo
Now, let’s look at the three pictures:
1. First picture (left): This animal has gray fur, a black mask around its eyes, and a striped tail. That’s a
raccoon. In the list, it’s written as “Racoon”.
2. Second picture (middle): This animal has a duck-like bill, webbed feet, and brown furry body. That’s a
platypus — one of the few mammals that lays eggs!
3. Third picture (right): This animal has wings made of skin stretched over long fingers, and it’s flying or gliding. That’s a
bat.
So, matching them:
- Left picture → Racoon
- Middle picture → Platypus
- Right picture → Bat
Final Answer:
Left box: Racoon
Middle box: Platypus
Right box: Bat
