Topic Reading-Vol.470-7/25/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
How animals evolved to stay cool under the sweltering summer sun.
We humans came up with ideas to deal with sizzling summer heat, such as wearing loose clothes, eating or drinking cold stuff, ventilating or cooling the air inside the building or house.
Many of you might know that dogs pant to cool off their body instead of sweating like humans do, so do the large ears elephants have. But there are other four-legged animals that live in places where temperatures go up over 40 degrees, or 100 in Fahrenheit, without shades or water such as desert or savanna?
Enjoy seeing the photos of amazing ecological cooling systems of animals and reading the explanations.
