camel
Don’t you have an image of camels walking through the desert carrying people? Also, the hump—mentioned as the third hint—is a characteristic unique to camels. It’s said that the hump contains fat, and that camels store nutrients their bodies need by converting them into fat.
My body is black and white. I’m a popular animal at the zoo. I love bamboo.

panda
If the only hint is a black-and-white animal, a zebra could be a candidate, but when you add that it’s a bamboo-loving crowd favorite, the answer is a panda. Beloved for their adorable appearance, pandas are said to be shy and gentle by nature. They spend most of the day eating and sleep for a few hours in between.
I’m capricious. I like high places. My cry is “meow.”
See the answer
cat
When you think of an animal that goes “meow,” it’s a cat, right? And cats love high places! Sometimes you see one that’s climbed a tree and can’t get down. They come to you for affection and then walk away… That fickle personality is probably one reason we’re so smitten with cats.
I am a mammal. I often spend time in the water. I have a big mouth.
See the answer
hippopotamus
The hippopotamus is the next largest animal after elephants and rhinoceroses. You can find them in zoos, often poking their heads out of the water. Their large mouths are distinctive, too. However, it’s said that their big mouths aren’t for eating more, but for showing off their long tusks.
I have a long tongue. I have patterns. I have a long neck.
See the answer
giraffe
If you’re asked to name an animal with a long neck, most people would probably answer “giraffe.” But giraffes actually have long tongues too—apparently up to 50 centimeters. The patterns on giraffes are said to be quite mysterious, but there are various theories: they may affect survival rates, help with camouflage, or aid in thermoregulation.
I am the largest animal on land. You can meet me at the zoo. I am characterized by a long trunk.
See the answer
Elephant
Elephants used to be about the size of tapirs, but their bodies changed greatly when they moved their habitat to the grasslands. However, as their bodies grew larger, they needed a huge amount of energy just to drink water and eat. That’s why they began using their trunks. Only the elephants with long trunks survived, and their current form became the standard for what we call “elephants.”
I have big antlers. I live in a cold region. I’m a companion of Santa.
See the answer
reindeer
When it comes to the animal that pulls Santa’s sleigh, it’s the reindeer. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is especially famous. Reindeer are members of the deer family, but they’re known for being the only species in which both males and females have antlers. The antlers fall off seasonally and grow back again.
