Start Their AdventureBrooks loves discovering how animals live and care for their families. He is fascinated by the different ways creatures raise their young—like how koalas carry their babies in pouches, while turtles and alligators leave theirs to survive on their own. He loves learning about habitats too, imagining what it’s like to live in a nest, den, or underwater. Nature’s variety and surprises make every animal’s story exciting and worth exploring for him!
Brooks loves capybaras because of their cute square face and big, round body. He think it’s amazing that capybaras are the largest rodents in the world, but also semi-aquatic—they can swim really well and love the water! He finds it interesting that capybaras are so calm and social, often hanging out with other animals. Brooks saw a video of capybaras sleeping with crocodiles and loved it!
Brooks' favorite outdoor activity is exploring animal habitats. He loves finding bird and squirrel nests high in the trees, spotting insect homes under rocks and logs, and watching frogs hop around pond edges. Every walk outside feels like a new adventure, full of hidden animal homes waiting to be discovered. He’s curious about how each creature builds its shelter and enjoys imagining what it’s like to live there. Nature feels like one big, exciting mystery to him.
