Best Answer

Circadian cycle programmed for nighttime activity, heightened senses (such as heightened sense of hearing, smell and/or touch, heightened spatial sense, Night Vision or Echolocation; this may perhaps result in sensitivity to intense light) to perceive things one cannot directly see, perhaps darker coloration (for predators and prey animals alike)

What does behavioral adaptations mean?

Behavioural adaptations are different from structural adaptations because they are particular ways an animal behaves in order to help it adapt to its environment. For example, the kiwi of New Zealand is nocturnal, because most of its non-native predators are diurnal. Another example is how some desert animals burrow deep where they can keep cool during the day and warm during winter nights.
