Look at this fascinating creature — it's an anteater! An anteater is a special animal that loves to eat ants and termites, and it has some amazing body parts that help it find its favorite food.
Right now, this anteater is walking around slowly, searching for food. It uses its excellent sense of smell to find ant nests or termite mounds hidden in the ground or inside old logs.
One of the most noticeable things about the anteater is its big, bushy tail — which is almost as large as its body!

The tail helps the anteater keep balance while walking, and it can also wrap it around itself like a cozy blanket when resting.
As it walks, the anteater keeps its eyes focused carefully on the ground. Suddenly, it sticks out its very long, thin, sticky tongue — like a living straw — deep into an ant tunnel to catch lots of tiny insects at once!
Anteaters may look a little unusual, but they are gentle, curious animals that play an important role in nature by helping control insect populations. Now let's follow the step-by-step instructions and try drawing it!
