Where Do They Live?

Imagine a big, boot-shaped country called Spain! It has sunny beaches, tall mountains, and green forests. This is called peninsular Spain because it's like a peninsula, almost surrounded by water. Many different animals call these places home, from the snowy peaks to the warm coastlines. It's a perfect playground for all sorts of mammals!

Who's Hiding Out There?

There are so many cool mammals in Spain! You might find a shy deer tiptoeing through the trees, or a playful otter splashing in a river. There are even big, strong bears and clever foxes. Some are small, like a little mouse, while others are much bigger. They all have special ways to find food and stay safe in their homes.
