Let me carefully examine the image to match each animal with its food.
I see two columns:
- Left column: animals (Owl, Bat, Garter Snake, Bald Eagle, Bobcat, Bullfrog)
- Right column: foods (Snowshoe Hare, Mouse, Earthworm, Mosquito, Grasshopper, Fish)
I need to match each animal to what it typically eats.
Let me go through each animal:
1.
Owl – Owls are nocturnal hunters that eat small mammals, birds, and insects. Looking at the options, "Mouse" is a common prey for owls.
2.
Bat – Many bats eat insects. The options include "Mosquito" and "Grasshopper". Most bats eat flying insects like mosquitoes, moths, etc. So "Mosquito" is likely.
3.
Garter Snake – These snakes eat worms, slugs, insects, and small amphibians. "Earthworm" is a classic food for garter snakes.
4.
Bald Eagle – Eagles are fish-eating birds of prey. They often catch fish from lakes and rivers. So "Fish" is correct.
5.
Bobcat – Bobcats are carnivores that hunt small mammals like rabbits, hares, rodents. "Snowshoe Hare" is a well-known prey of bobcats (and lynx).
6.
Bullfrog – Frogs eat insects and other small invertebrates. They commonly eat grasshoppers, flies, etc. "Grasshopper" fits best.
Let me double-check:
- Owl → Mouse
✔
- Bat → Mosquito
✔ (many insectivorous bats eat mosquitoes)
- Garter Snake → Earthworm
✔
- Bald Eagle → Fish
✔
- Bobcat → Snowshoe Hare
✔
- Bullfrog → Grasshopper
✔
All six match cleanly with no duplicates.
Final Answer:
Owl → Mouse
Bat → Mosquito
Garter Snake → Earthworm
Bald Eagle → Fish
Bobcat → Snowshoe Hare
Bullfrog → Grasshopper
