The aardvark is a nocturnal mammal native to Africa. Aardvarks are primarily insectivores, with a diet that consists mainly of ants and termites. They use their powerful limbs and sharp claws to dig into termite mounds and ant hills, and their long, sticky tongue to capture their prey. The aardvark’s keen sense of smell aids in locating these insect colonies, making it a highly efficient forager.
Aardvarks have a distinctive appearance, with a long, pig-like snout that is highly flexible and used for sniffing out food. Their ears are large and upright, providing excellent hearing, which is crucial for detecting predators in the dark. Aardvarks have a robust, muscular body covered in coarse, sparsely distributed hair that offers protection against insect bites and the rough terrain of their habitat. Their limbs are short but powerful, ending in strong claws that are perfect for digging.
