Animals often moult seasonally. Learners should associate 'moult' with periods of transition in animals.

Seasonal Moult

The condition of an animal's coat or feathers can indicate the moulting process is happening.

Moult Indications

The moult's timing can reflect an animal's native habitat and climate adaptability.

A moult isn't always obvious at a glance, unlike other animal behaviors.

The time an animal remains in moult varies widely among species.

During moult, an animal's abilities may be affected, like flying or swimming.
