Do you know what animals do for summer?

rabbits radiate body heat with their ears, snails curl up in their shells, hippos secrete sweat to escape the heat, elephants use mud to escape the heat, and so on.

The sweat glands of rabbits are underdeveloped, so they can only rely on the abundant capillaries in their ears to dissipate a lot of heat generated in their bodies. Most snails like to stay in a damp environment. When summer comes, the snail will secrete a layer of mucus on its body surface to close its hard shell, and it will curl up in the shell to escape the heat. Snails living in the desert of Africa will shrink into their hard shells, then burrow into the gravel for "summer sleep" and spend the whole summer. Besides bathing in water, the most commonly used summer resort for larger animals, such as elephants and buffaloes, is to take a mud bath. Mud can not only effectively protect against the sun, but also reduce the body temperature and resist the attack of mosquitoes because of the continuous evaporation of its water. After the mud is dry, it can also take away parasites, bacteria and dead skin from the skin of these animals due to the hot weather, and play a cleaning role.

The summer resorts include Har Summer Holy Land, Guiyang Summer Capital, Yichun Green Treasure House and Qingdao Cool Sea Breeze.
