Three cards fill in one at a time: a duck whose webbed feet push the water so it swims, a beaver whose big front teeth chew through a tree trunk, and a bear whose thick fur helps it stay warm in the snow. Each card names the animal, points an arrow at the body part and says what it helps the animal do, and the video ends on the recap "Webbed feet, big teeth and thick fur help animals live."
