Have you ever wondered about animals and their friends? Animals are very interesting creatures. Some animals live together and help each other. They form special friendships. For example, there are animals called "symbiotic animals." These animals work together in nature. One example is the clownfish and the sea anemone. The clownfish lives in the sea anemone and gets protection. In return, the clownfish helps the anemone stay clean and safe from other fish. This is called a "mutual friendship" because both animals help each other. There are many animals around the world that have friends too. Some birds help farmers by eating insects. Some dogs and cats become best friends and play every day. Animals can teach us about friendship and caring. They are not only our friends but also nature's friends. We should take care of them and protect their homes. Learning about animals can make us happy and curious about the world.
