Animal came to the land from water to overcome the competition of space and food in water. Some of them were lured to expe­dite the air either to escape from enemies or to capture food. But it is interesting that they never succeeded in developing their nest at air. They had to return on earth for resting and nesting.

Therefore, they exhibit dual adaptive modifications — one for air and the other for land. For movement in air they developed flight mechanism in addition to terrestrial or aquatic adaptation. Adaptation of animals in exploring the air or extra­terrestrial environment is called volant adap­tation.
