Camels



Camels are desert animals, I mean they were living in the deserts.  These animals were walking in the desert  and  let me tell how they are use there different body parts to stay alive. First they have one or two humps. Which makes them drink a lot  less water the humps are like blubber to them. Second they have  wide feet so they do not  sink in the sand.

How to prepare for arrival of a cockatiel

Today I am going to tell what to do before your cockatiel arrives  to  a new home.


A cockatiel has to be in the place where he should live  for a couple of years. Otherwise your bird will have a bigger stress. Bigger stress can cause a situation which is a more likely to have illness.To run away from stress I have  to tell what to prepare before a cockatiel comes. First the most important is a cage the cost  the place  and measurement it is very important that it has the right measurement. The second important thing  is the inside of the cage I mean food, water, dishes, perches, and the floor paperings. That all need to be  in  the cage and  before  your cockatiel  comes. Also you may want to get a couple toys and a play gym, the important thing is that they need  to be safe for your cockatiel.


I have a cockatiel myself it is a good pet.

Mandarins

Here I'am talking about a mandarin fish. I have learned about these animals quite a bit and also drew a picture.

                                                                                                                                                                    




A mandarin fish (Synchiropus Splendidus) is a small fish and is very shy. They live in corals and is only one of the fishes that have not scaly skin this helps in defense against predators that kind of skin tastes bad to other fish.


When you first hear the word mandarin fish it sound a bit weird, a  mandarin with eyes and tail. The fish got the name from it's bizzare and interesting and colors and patterns  it looks like  mandarin for it's orange color.

Another  member of mandarins is the spotted mandarin fish (Synchiropus Picturatus). It is usually mixed up with the mandarin fish.


Some people like how these fish look like so they have them as pets. Mandarins are very shy and might not want to eat the food that  you give  them. They may want  to hunt for their food by usually like in the  wild.

Body parts of whales

This is a usually picture of all whales body parts
Whales are great prepared for living  in water. They have strong flukes and flippers they could easily leap out of water  .Some whales have very small flukes but they are super powerful. There eyes sight  are not useful under he seas murky waters so it has to use echolocation to find food. But echolocation can be a bit harmful for the  whale because the sound will get the attention of a predator.

Orcas food chain

I was interested in orcas  because of  their unique food chain and their unpredictable behavior and how their intelligent work like. I have never seen one alive but I hope so I would. Their colour is also special.

In my mind orcas are unique by. . .
  • their food chain  
  • their body colour



    Let me tell you the food chain that I made

    Orcas use echolocation to catch seals. When using echolocation orcas make buzzing sounds which makes it quite difficult for them to catch food. What  do seals eat? They eat fish,They have eat lots of fish to keep their body warm. What do fish eat? They eat worms and plankton. Fish have an easy life of being predator to worms and plankton. What do worms eat? They suck  tiny pieces of tiny plants. What do plants eat?  They eat water minerals. That is the cut  part of our food chain.

    The unique part of  the body colour is that it does not only have  black, white and gray it also has the colour purple you could find it beside the dorsal fin.

    And that's why I think orcas are an unique animal.

    All the otters of waters

    The difference between sea otter ad  river otter are that river otters are much smaller than sea otters.  Both species spend most of  their time in water but only river otters are the only ones who can walk on land, they have  long tails to hold their balance while walking on land.

    Sea otters

    Otters are great creatures they are also mammals like whales. They breath air but they do not have blow holes they have nostrils. They are the only marine mammals that have fur. They have to groom (groom means clean  ) themselves so they wont drown.
