What are the names of the baby animals and their parents. baby animals
13.11.2016 13:48Fox with cubs. Foxes live in families in burrows that have several moves. They have a beautiful red color, but there are also gray and brown foxes, and there are even white foxes.
For example, this cute creature is also a kind of fox - this is a fennec fox.
Hare and bunny. In summer, the fur coat of the hares is gray with a brownish tinge to make it easier to hide in the grass. In autumn, the hare changes the color of its fur coat to snow-white, so as not to be noticeable in the snow. They eat plant foods. Did you know that hares are fed by different hares? The hare mother stays with the hares for only a few days after birth, and then leaves. And the rabbits are waiting somewhere in a secluded place when some rabbit comes running and feeds them. They all give birth at about the same time, and then each hare feeds the babies she meets.
A bear with a cub. Unlike hares, a mother bear raises her children until they grow up and become independent. In winter, bears hibernate and sleep in dens until spring.
Spotted deer and deer. Adorable baby, right?
Moose and a little calf. Moose are very large animals. They can run at car speeds up to 56 km/h and can swim. The males have large, beautiful antlers that they shed each year in the fall. In their place, new horns grow in 4-5 months.
Horse with foal.
Boar with piglets. Babies are born in fluffy fur with beautiful stripes on the back, with age the color changes to dark gray bristles.
Lynx with a small lynx. A beautiful animal with tassels on its ears, similar to domestic cat, but much larger.
Seal and Belek. White color helps the baby to disguise itself in the snow from predators. Seals feed their babies with milk. Seals sleep by floating vertically near the surface of the water, rising to take a breath through their nostrils.
Little hedgehog. Hedgehogs are born naked and blind, and only after a few days they have small needles that serve as a protection for hedgehogs. Hedgehogs feed on milk, and adult hedgehogs feed on insects, small rodents, berries, and fruits.
Chimpanzee with a baby. Chimpanzees are the most intelligent animals, often resembling human actions in habits. Easily learn to perform any action.
Rhinoceros and baby rhino. Adult rhinos are powerful and formidable animals, but their babies are very cute.
Hippo, or rather a baby hippopotamus. Hippos are no less formidable animals than rhinos. They spend a lot of time in the water and can dive underwater for up to 10 minutes.
Anya dragged our Behemoth, compares. Looks like it, right?
Especially with this pygmy hippopotamus.
Adorable little elephant. By the way, the most powerful animals are Indian elephants. And their pregnancy lasts almost two years. And they swim perfectly in the water, sticking their trunk above the surface.
Cheetah with cubs. Cheetahs are the fastest animals on earth. They can reach speeds up to 110 km/h. And they, unlike other members of the cat family, do not know how to growl and climb trees. They hunt alone, not in packs.
Do you know the difference between a cheetah and a leopard or a jaguar? Coloring and spots on the body. The cheetah has black stripes and round black spots on the muzzle from the eyes to the corners of the mouth. Jaguars have larger spots than leopards.
In this picture you can see and compare these animals.
Lions and cubs. Lions live in families called pride. Often, while adult lions are hunting for babies, older sisters look after them.
Some more exotic animals.
Koala or Australian bear with a cub. Koalas live on eucalyptus trees and feed only on eucalyptus leaves. For cubs, they, like kangaroos, have a special pocket, which is called a bag.
Anteater with a cub. Anteaters feed on insects and have very long tongues to get insects out of crevices and burrows.
Wow, so long!
These are Malayan tapirs. My children sometimes confuse tapirs with anteaters, because they have a slightly similar nose, but they are completely different animals. Tapirs feed on grass and vegetation.
Perhaps this photo is also worth showing
Sloth with a cub. Sloths are the slowest animals on earth.
Already grown up cub of a giraffe with mother. Giraffes are the tallest animals on earth. They feed on tree leaves.
And newborn giraffes look very funny.
I'll show you another photo of the kangaroo, and then we'll stop. Kangaroos also carry babies in a pouch on their stomach. They move by jumping on powerful hind legs and leaning on the tail.
All baby animals are very cute and charming, they, like our children, are very curious and love to play.

Children: - There should be four paws, they should be from the bottom of the body and of the same size so that the animal can stand on them steadily and not fall.

Many baby animals have the most unpredictable names. When children begin to explore the world, they ask their parents a lot of questions, for example, a lamb - whose cub is this? Or what is the name of a baby giraffe, or a camel, or other animals. Sometimes, parents themselves do not know this. To prevent this from happening, we have collected answers to all these questions in the article.
Let's start with pets. They are more likely to catch the eye of children, therefore they arouse more interest.
Sheep
Consider the name of the baby sheep. Many people living in cities do not even realize that a sheep and a ram are one kind of animal, only female and male. Their cub is called not a sheep or a lamb, but a lamb.
It is interesting! The word lamb comes from the Latin agnus. In Old Slavonic, a baby sheep and a ram sounds like a lamb. The root "yagn" was present in the name of the animal. Later, the suffix "enok" was added to it, which means a reduced form. Hence the name - lamb.
Pig
Pigs are one of the first animals that were domesticated by man. They belong to the order of artiodactyls. They supply people with meat, lard. The female pig is called a sow or pig, and the male is called a boar or boar. But their baby is not called a pig or a boar, but a piglet.
It is interesting! The Slavs called the male pig a pig. The addition of the suffix "enok", again, means a reduced form. Hence the name - piglet.
By the way, the birth of piglets is called farrowing, and a pregnant pig is called pregnant.
Cow
Cows have been tamed by man since ancient times. They give people meat, milk. The male cow is called a bull, and the cub is called a calf. Another example of the fact that babies and parents have different roots.
Experts still cannot figure out where the word calf came from, there are only guesses. One of them is that among the ancient Slavs this word meant “carried out”, and in fact cows bear offspring for 9 months.
Turkey
Turkeys are native to America. But in recent centuries, this bird has been grown in European countries.
It is interesting! Few people know that turkeys are named after their homeland. Previously, America was called the West Indies, so the name of the birds is translated as Indian rooster.
In this case, parents and their kids have the same root. A female turkey is called a turkey or turkey, and her cub is called a turkey.
Rabbit
Another domestic animal is a rabbit. The female is called a rabbit, the male is a rabbit, and their baby is a rabbit.
Rabbits are raised for meat, hides and fur. The Angora breed of animals has valuable fur, beautiful and expensive fur coats are sewn from it.
Also on rabbits, scientists test medications before allowing them to be sold. Released not too long ago dwarf breeds rabbits are now kept in apartments instead of hamsters and guinea pigs.
goats
Unlike previous animals, goats are not so often bred by people, but there are entire farms with them. The fact is that in addition to meat and fatty milk, these animals supply people with skin and wool.
The female of these animals is a goat, the male is a goat, and their baby is a goat. The same “diminutive” suffix “enok” is present in the name of the baby.
Many people confuse goats with lambs. This is a big misconception, since we are talking about two different types animals.
Horses
Horses were domesticated over 7,000 years ago. During this time, people have bred many breeds of these animals, from miniature ponies to huge heavy trucks and horses.
A female horse is called a mare, a male is called a stallion or horse, and their baby is called a foal. If we are talking about two or more babies, then the word foals is used.
Speaking in general about this type of animal, 2 names are applied to them: horses and horses.
ducks
Ducks are wild, domestic. They belong to the order of birds and are valued for the taste of their meat. The female of these birds is called a duck, mallard, the male is called a drake, and their cub is called a duckling. If we are talking about two or more chicks, then the word ducklings is used.
We have considered domestic animals, but there are many more wild and tropical animals, as well as fish and birds that children and adults are interested in.
Very often children ask: what is the name of a baby zebra or giraffe? But not every adult will immediately answer this question.
Zebras
Zebras belong to the order of artiodactyls. In fact, these are the same horses, only with a characteristic black and white coloring. In the common people, zebra cubs are called zebras or zebras, but this is an incorrect petting interpretation. The correct name is foal, just like horses.
Giraffe
Since giraffes are the tallest animals in the world, interest in this animal is high. With their participation, many cartoons were shot, invented various stories, fairy tales. It is not surprising that children are interested in the question: what is the name of a baby giraffe?
Since these representatives of the fauna belong to the artiodactyl order, their babies are called calves. However, this name was not strongly attached to the offspring of giraffes. They are often referred to as giraffes or giraffes. But if the child is given the task to describe the cubs of a giraffe, then it will be correct - a calf.
By the way, a female giraffe is called a giraffe and a male is called a giraffe.
