Resting Lion
The lion lies with its two front paws out in front and its tail curled beside its body. Broad rounded sections make up the mane around the face. Choose a colour for the face first, then use a different shade in the mane if desired. The open body and paws provide larger areas than the small nose and eyes.
Zebra with Open Stripes
The standing zebra has four legs, an upright mane and a little tuft at the end of its tail. Its stripes are outlined spaces rather than solid black bands. Leave those areas white, fill them dark or invent a different colour pattern. Begin with a few broad bands on the body before trying the narrower shapes on the legs.
Hippo in a Small Pool
The hippo sits partly in water, with its broad muzzle and small rounded ears above the simple pool lines. The visible body is open and rounded, giving room for crayons. Try one colour on the hippo and another around the water curves, or leave the pool white. There are no small background animals to find or color.
Rhino Beside Grass
The rhino stands beside one small tuft of grass. Its two horns, large ears and thick legs give it a different silhouette from the zebra and hippo. The body has a generous uninterrupted area; the toes and grass are smaller details. Color the broad body first if that makes the page easier to approach, then decide whether to add other shades.
Upright Meerkat
Two little front paws rest near the meerkat's belly while it stands on its back feet. A long curved tail lies beside the feet. The belly patch makes a separate area inside the slender body, and the rounded face has clear cheek shapes. Choose a light or bright belly colour without needing to follow a realistic fur pattern.
Ostrich and Egg
The ostrich has a small head on a long neck, a fluffy outlined body and two long legs. One large egg rests beside it. The wing and body feather divisions are broad enough to colour separately; the neck and legs offer narrower shapes. Give the egg its own shade or add an invented pattern inside its plain outline.
Walking Warthog
The warthog steps forward on four hooved legs. Its broad snout, two curved tusks and tufted tail remain clear around the open body. Start with the largest body area, then choose separate colours for the mane, snout and hooves if desired. The small tusks may be left white, and there is no required colour key.
Antelope with Curved Horns
The antelope stands with four slender legs, pointed ears and two long curved horns. A fluffy neck section and small tail add a few extra shapes without a busy background. The horns have broad curved divisions to follow with a pencil. Leave the surrounding space blank or draw an invented patch of grass beneath the animal.
Choose and Print Your Pages
The complete download contains eight animal pages and no cover sheet. Each single-animal PDF contains just that one picture. Select A4 or US Letter for the paper loaded in your printer, use portrait orientation and fit to printable area if needed. These drawings do not depend on exact printed measurements.
A black-and-white printer is sufficient. Check that the first page includes the full outlined name, ears, feet and tail before printing more. Ordinary paper and crayons or coloured pencils make a simple setup; place spare paper underneath if using markers.
Offer a Small Safari Choice
For a short activity, offer two pictures with different kinds of areas to color, such as the zebra's stripes and the lion's broad mane. A shared table can have several animals available so each child chooses a page. The pictures can use realistic or imaginary colours; they are open-ended drawings rather than a test.
Keep the finished sheets whole for a display or folder. There is no cutting or assembly. Next time, replace only the animal page wanted, rather than printing the entire collection again.
You may print these files for personal, family and classroom activities. Share this resource page rather than selling or rehosting the PDFs.
