Magoosh Comics: Reviewing Animal Words

In my last post, I introduced life science words. As I mentioned, these words go well with Lucas’ animal words. Today, I’m going to review the animal words Lucas introduced you to. Again, I’ll give you a short definition for each word and some mnemonic pictures to make the definitions memorable.
