Question

Which is not an example of a behavioral adaptation in lions?

A.
using teeth and claws to hunt


B.
lioness teaching her young how to hunt


C.
lioness protecting her young


D.
using a roar to communicate that a male is intruding

Answer 1

A. Using teeth and claws to hunt wouldn't be a behavioral adaptation, more primal instinct or something of the sort. A cat or dog doesn't need to learn how to bite and paw, they just know. Just as humans aren't taught to laugh or cry. Although, I don't have any prior knowledge on this subject, it seems to make sense.
