Family Day Crossword
Play the conservation crossword puzzle!
How would you describe your family in one word? Loyal, tight-knit or perhaps a little eccentric? For us humans, the family unit is often our primary social group, and kinship has been central to societal development. But in the fascinating world of the animals, applying this human concept can be a little challenging; especially when only about a handful of the 4,000 known mammalian species mate for life!
In honour of Family Day, here is a crossword puzzle that you and your family can enjoy. Test your knowledge with clues about how animals bond, where they live, what their youngsters are called and more!
