Crepuscular animals are those animals that are only active during dawn and dusk. The correct option is A. Crepuscular animals are usually desert animals; they come out during the dawn and at dusk in order to escape the harsh heat of the day and the biting coldness of the night. By the reason of this adaptation, they are able to conserve their energy and carry out reproductive processes.
