Quest #5 - A Creature

Challenge Number Five

"Design a creature.

A creature, is a living organism, generally the non-human kind. Insects, bugs, birds, animals, sea creatures, plants, fungus, micro-organisms, maybe even other worldly?

This creature can be something that already exists, or it can be something that you have just discovered. It can live on Earth, or a different planet.

What I would like to know is its habitat - the environment in which it lives. You can tell me anything about this creature to describe it, like its name, what it eats, etc. Share as much or as little information as you like.

Here are the cool creations kids from around the world made in response to this challenge."
