DESCRIPTION
This is my powerpoint about symbiotic relation ships
Citation preview
How animals rely on each other to survive.
The Crocodile and the Egyptian plover bird
The Symbiotic Relationship Between
Crocodiles and Egyptian Plovers A symbiotic relationship is when two animals need
each other to survive.
A crocodile needs a Egyptian plover to clean it’s teeth and the plover needs to eat the stuff in the crocodiles teeth to live.
That’s only one example of a symbiotic relationship. There are probably millions of symbiotic relationships in the world.
A croc and Plover conversation
Crocodile: Hey! Plover! Why do you always have to climb into my mouth and peck my teeth?
Plover: If didn’t do that I would have nothing to eat.
Crocodile: So why don’t you get your grub from some other crocodile?
Plover: You shouldn’t be so mean! If it wasn’t for me your teeth would be rotten and moldy!
Crocodile: OK, I’ll try not to be so mean next time.
Plover: Thank you.
