Daytime and night-time animals

Our world is always spinning around, a bit like a roundabout. When our part of the world faces the sun, it's bright daytime. When it spins away from the sun, it becomes dark nighttime.

This pattern splits animals into two big teams.

Daytime animals, like birds and squirrels, are busy when it's light.

Night-time animals, like hedgehogs and foxes, come out when it's dark. This is their clever plan to stay safe from daytime hunters or to keep cool on a hot day.
