Africa
is a huge continent that’s made up of many different habitats, such as sand, rock, water and grassland. Each of those habitats are a perfect place for some of the most incredible creatures in the world. On this continent you will find the fastest, largest, and weirdest animals on the earth, many of which are unfortunately now endangered.

Asia covers a vast area that reaches almost halfway round the Earth from east to west and contains a diverse array of habitats and animals.
Australia is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. The continental drift tore Australia away from Africa and Antarctica and sent it on a 45 million year journey northwards. The original mammal passengers on this journey were the marsupials and egg layers.

The Arctic is a polar region located at the northernmost part of the Earth. It consists of a vast, ice-covered ocean, surrounded by treeless permafrost. Many animals migrate away from the dark Arctic for the winter, returning to take advantage of the 24 hour summer sunshine to breed.
The Antarctic is a polar region, specifically the region around the Earth's South Pole and holds the record for being the coldest place on Earth. The extensive ice cover and lack of winter sunlight makes the continent pretty inhospitable to life.

Europe
is defined as a separate continent in political terms, but biogeographically it's part of Eurasia. It has a huge range of habitats, from tundra to bogs, moorland, forests, mountain ranges, coastal cliffs, wetlands and semi arid deserts. It has a surprisingly diverse range of wildlife. Bears are still be found across most of Europe along with wild boar, deer, moose, otters and even bison.

North America
has been in contact with South America and Eurasia, and been colonised by animals and plants from both landmasses. Some of these have gone on to evolve into new species in their new home.
South America became a continent on breaking away from Africa and Antarctica 120 million years ago. Its fauna and flora are descended from organisms either on the continent then (marsupials, for instance) or that managed to make their way there during its isolation three million years ago.

The Ocean is home to some of the most magnificent and unusual creatures on Earth. A large proportion of all life on earth exists in the oceans and cover about 71% of the earth's surface. Specific habitats include coral reefs, kelp forests, seagrass meadows, tidepools, muddy, sandy and rocky bottoms, and the open ocean. The diverse marine life ranges from microscopic phytoplankton and zooplankton to huge whales measuring 30 meters in length.

The Farm is an area of land including various structures, devoted primarily to the practice of producing grains, or livestock. They may be owned and operated by a single individual, family, community, corporation or a company. It can be a holding of any size from a fraction of a hectare to several thousand hectares. The livestock can either be kept in an enclosure, fed by human-provided food and intentionally bred, or not enclosed and allowed to breed freely. Historically livestock raising was part of a nomadic or pastoral form of material culture.

Dinosaurs are a diverse group of animals that first appeared during the Triassic period, 231.4 million years ago, and were the dominant species for 135 million years. Some grew to magnificent sizes such as the better known dinosaurs Brachiosaurus which measured 45 feet in height and the Diplodocus at 50 feet high. They are a specific subgroup of the archosaurs, a group that also includes crocodiles, pterosaurs, and birds.
