App Review: Mammals

Hey readers,

Today I’m here to tell you about an app that lets you learn about different kinds of mammals!

Mammals is an app that lets you explore how mammals eat, see, run, fly, and more!

The app teaches you about the different bones, fur, heartbeats, whiskers, and other parts of mammals. You can also learn about things that are unique to certain animals. For example, how bats use echolocation (say: eh–kow–low–KEH–shun) to find food in the dark and how elephants use their trunks to drink water and carry objects.

You can download Mammals from the App Store here.

If you try it out, let us know what you think!
