Raccoon by Charles
Raccoons have black facial markings and bushy tails with light and dark rings. They live throughout North America in forests and urban areas, often near water in hollow trees, burrows, or caves. Raccoons have a varied nocturnal diet of berries, insects, fruit, and human food sources like garbage, and give birth to litters of 4-5 young in April or May.

1) Red foxes live alone except during mating season when they select dens made of woodchuck burrows, hollow logs, stream banks, rock piles, caves, or dense shrubs with 1-2 escape holes.
2) Litters of 1-10 pups are fed milk at first and later regurgitated meat, then live prey brought by the mother until the pups can hunt on their own at 7 months old.
3) Red foxes are omnivores that eat small mammals, birds, snakes, turtles, insects, and scavenge what is available through hunting at night or dawn mainly by stalking prey.

The Mountain Chickadee
The mountain chickadee has white eyebrows and gray legs that help it camouflage. It eats seeds and insects, getting food from feeders whenever available. Chickadees build homes in tree holes out of sticks and stones. They have 5-8 young per year and a lifespan of around 2 years, with an egg gestation period of 10-12 days. Chickadee eggs are white and they can have multiple families while flocking with other birds.
Cheetahs
Cheetahs mostly eat small mammals like deer and rabbits but will hunt zebras when hungry. They are found in open areas like Africa to help them chase prey but not in wetlands or forests. Cheetahs can run very fast for short bursts to catch prey using their tail for steering but are threatened by fights, injuries, and sometimes hunted by humans for their fur. Their diet consists mainly of antelope like impalas and gazelles.
uniQ /Philadelphia Zoo - Conférence sur les amphibiens - 15 octobre 2012

10 interesting facts vertebrates
Male birds and fish tend to have brighter colors than females, which are usually dull brown, in order to attract mates. Some vertebrates like sea lampreys feed by boring holes in other animals and consuming their blood and tissues, rather than ingesting food. The bonobo and earliest known bird, Archaeopteryx, were vertebrates that shared characteristics with both birds and non-birds. Vertebrates range greatly in size, from the world's largest animal, the blue whale, to the smallest fish, only 8.4 mm in length.
Animal Behaviours in Zoos
The lion enclosure at Auckland Zoo is much smaller than the range lions have in the wild, and consists of grassy hills, trees, and rocks rather than the open savannah habitat lions typically live in. The climate and ability to hunt/access food and water are also very different for lions at the zoo compared to in the wild. While toys and other items are provided for stimulation, the living conditions, social structures, and behaviors of the lions differ significantly from what would be seen in the natural environment.
The giraffe enclosure also provides a habitat that diverges substantially from what would be found in the wild savannah. It is mostly bare earth with few trees, the climate and access to food/water vary greatly
endangeredbirdsebook
This document is a reading passage about endangered birds that discusses three specific birds: the kakapo parrot of New Zealand, the short-tailed albatross of Japan, and the California condor of North America. It describes how each of these bird species faced threats of extinction from hunting and habitat loss but conservation efforts are underway to help increase their populations, such as protecting their islands from predators, banning feather hunting, and hand-raising chicks.
Ashleydaniels hippo
This document provides information about the physical characteristics, behavior, diet, and habitat of hippopotamuses. It notes that hippos can weigh over 3,000 pounds, live in rivers and swamps, eat over 150 pounds of grass per night, and though they appear docile are actually very dangerous and unpredictable. The document concludes by stating hippos are the author's favorite animal.
Vertebrates
Vertebrates can be classified into five categories: birds, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals. Birds are warm-blooded creatures that lay eggs and have feathers and wings to fly. Fishes live in water and have fins and gills. Amphibians live both on land and in water, starting as eggs with gills. Reptiles are covered in dry scales, some lay eggs while others give live birth. Mammals are warm-blooded, have hair or fur, and most give live birth.

The platypus uses its sensitive snout to detect tiny movements of prey in rivers and streams, as its skin covers its eyes and ears when it dives. It is one of few mammals that lays eggs. Wallabies are marsupials where tiny babies live in their mother's pouch to feed and grow until around 10 months old. Dolphins are powerful swimmers that can reach speeds over 20 mph with their streamlined shape, strong tail flukes, and steering flippers, though they usually swim at 5 mph. Bats have built-in radar called echolocation that helps them fly and hunt in darkness by emitting high-pitched noises.
Endangered animals
The document provides information on several endangered animal species:
The White Rhinoceros is nearly extinct in the wild and few have been brought into captivity successfully. The most breeding success has occurred at the San Diego Wild Animal Park.
The California Condor population declined to less than 40 birds despite conservation efforts. The first condor bred in captivity was named Molloko at the San Diego Wild Animal Park.
Leopards have faced declining populations due to loss of habitat and poaching for their valuable fur. Conservation efforts are helping protect leopards in some areas.

It displays a rare original copy of the Constitution, hosts special events for both adults and children, and features a life-size display of the Constitution's signers in Signers Hall. The Center also includes a 350-seat theater called the Kimmel Theater that shows a multimedia presentation about the history of the Constitution.

Franklin Institute
The Franklin Institute was founded in 1824 in Philadelphia and is located at 222 North 20th Street, though it was originally elsewhere.

The Franklin Airshow reopened in 2003 after renovations to showcase the history and science of flight. The museum website is www2.fi.edu and it contains many exhibits across its four floors.
Mummers Museum
Mummers are groups of people who march around in masks on New Year's Day, continuing a tradition that dates back to 400 BC. They prepare all year for their event, where they parade through cities in costumes and masks. Today, the Mummers still hold parades, with recent events taking place in Atlantic City in February 2011.
Elfreth's Alley
Elfreth's Alley is the oldest residential street in the United States, dating back to 1702 when men donated land to create it. Originally home to Moses Mordecai and his family after he gained freedom, the alley had a diverse population in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Today several historic homes still line the alley, and more information can be found at http://elfrethsalley.org/history.
