Zebra  
A zebra’s stripes are as unique as fingerprints: no two sets are exactly alike  
Zebras are very social animals that spend time in herds grazing together  
on grass  
If a zebra is attacked, its family will defend it by forming a circle around it  
for protection  
The life span of a zebra is about 25 years in the wild  
A grown zebra stands 3.5 to 5 ft. (1.1 to 1.5 m) when measured to the  
shoulder  
Adult zebras weigh about 440 to 990 lbs. (200 to 450 kg)  
When a baby zebra (called a foal) is born, its mother will keep all other  
zebras away from it for a few days so it can learn to recognize her by sight,  
sound, and smell  
Monkey  
Squirrel monkeys are one of over 260 known kinds of monkeys  
Squirrel monkeys grow to about 10 to 14 inches (25 to 35 cm) in length  
and weigh about 1.5 to 2.2 pounds (0.7 to 1 kg)  
A squirrel monkey gets its name because of its back coloring, which is  
similar to a squirrel’s; the squirrel monkey’s tail is about 15 inches  
(32 cm) long  
Squirrel monkeys are thought to be one of the smartest kinds of monkeys;  
a squirrel monkey has the largest brain compared to its body size of any  
kind of monkey  
Squirrel monkeys mainly eat plants, fruits, and insects  
The life span of a squirrel monkey is about 12–15 years in the wild  
Penguin  
Emperor penguins are the largest of penguin species, weighing about 65  
to 80 pounds (30 to 36 kg); Emperor penguins grow to about 3.8 feet  
(1.15 m) tall  
Emperor penguins eat fish, krill, and squid  
Emperor penguins can dive longer and deeper than any other penguin or  
bird species  
Emperor penguins can dive to a depth of 1,800 feet (550 meters) and hold  
their breath for up to 22 minutes  
The female Emperor penguin lays one egg, which is kept warm by the  
male penguin  
Emperor penguins huddle together to help block the wind and keep  
themselves warm  
Emperor penguins have a life span of about 20 years in the wild  
 
Discussion Starters  
In addition to providing great opportunities for pretend play, the Jumbo Zoo  
Animals are discussion starters in early science. Ask questions like these to help  
students understand the similarities and the differences between the animals.  
Which animal has feathers? (Penguin)  
Which animals have fur or hair? (Polar bear, zebra, monkey, hippo)  
Do any of the animals lay eggs? (Penguin)  
How are the feet of each animal alike or different from the others? (Zebra  
has hooves; polar bear has paws with claws; penguin has webbed feet)  
Does the coloring of any of the animals help it blend into its natural habitat?  
(Polar bear is white to blend into a snowy habitat)  
Which animal is most like a horse? (Zebra)  
Which animal has a long tail to help it hang on trees? (Monkey)  
Which animal likes a cold environment in the wild? (Polar bear, penguin)  
Which animal spends a lot of time in water? (Penguin, hippopotamus)  
Which animal probably eats fish in the wild? (Penguin, polar bear)  
Which animal only eats plants in the wild? (Hippopotamus, zebra)  
Questions like these help students develop early classification skills based on the  
characteristics of the animals.  
Design a Habitat  
Challenge students to use crayons and paper to design one of the animals in a  
zoo habitat that is most like its natural habitat. Make sure the students consider  
the basic needs of the animals including food and shelter.  
Animal Act  
Encourage students to move and make noise like each of the animals as you hold  
them up in view. Have students take turns acting like one of the animals and  
have others guess which animal the actor is pretending to be. Discuss how the  
animals sound and move in comparison to each other. How are they alike? How  
are they much different?
