I wear an armour like a warrior, but I don’t like to fight. When a predator comes near, I run away or curl up into a ball to protect myself. Who am I?
Among the seven American animals included in this book we can find the toucan, which can be heard all over the jungle, the vicuna, which goes through the high mountains, and the sloth, which hangs from tree branches. Many of the animals of America are threatened by pollution, fire or forest logging.
