Marine conservation project friend of the sea
The most eminent cause is the usage of biological resources such as hunting, trapping, fishing/harvesting aquatic resources, logging, and wood harvesting, etc. Other human activities related to agriculture and aquaculture, fishing (in particular trawling without Turtle Excluder Devices and use of FADs with entangling nets), urbanization, contribute significantly in this regard. Likewise, man-made pollution created by mismanagement of waste products in domestic, industrial and agricultural sectors is noteworthy.

Turtle powerpoint
The loggerhead sea turtle has a yellowish-brown shell and reddish-brown belly, and resembles a large log due to its shape. It lives near coastlines around the world except in polar regions, eating soft foods like jellyfish and fish as well as seaweed, using its powerful jaws to crush prey. Though they hatch on beaches, loggerhead sea turtles face threats from human hunting and fishing nets as well as sharks, and are currently an endangered species.
Shark Trivia 5th Grade Web
Sharks are not mindless eating machines, as 80% are unable to hurt humans. When shark attacks occur, it is usually due to mistaken identity rather than hunting humans. Hippos kill more humans annually than sharks, with hippos causing up to 200 deaths per year compared to approximately 5 from sharks. Shark finning, where fins are removed and the body discarded, threatens sharks populations as fins are used in shark fin soup, a delicacy. Sharks play an important role in the ocean ecosystem, and their loss could destabilize the food chain and reduce air quality.
The Sturgeon by Marcus
Sturgeons have bony plates and thick sucking lips but no teeth. They live in rivers and coastal waters around the world, including the Fraser River, near New York, Alaska, Russia, and China. Sturgeons eat shellfish, worms, crabs, snails, small fish and insects. They are endangered due to overfishing and pollution reducing their populations. People fish and sell sturgeons illegally on the black market. Conservation efforts are needed to protect sturgeons and stop overfishing.

Sharks
Sharks have been around for 40 million years and can live up to 280 years old. There are many different types of sharks including the great white shark, which grows up to 6 meters long. Sharks have rows of teeth that they use to bite prey and swallow it whole, and live in deep, warm waters around places like South Africa and North America. They are carnivorous and eat other animals but are often more afraid of humans than we are of them.
Winsor green turtle
Green turtle has spots to blend in with its surroundings and is found in parts of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. A group of turtles is called a bale. Green turtles are endangered because baby turtles can get confused by city lights and walk in circles or towards the city where they will not survive and can be eaten by predators. People are helping green turtles by dimming city lights and not fishing for them.
Shocking Sharks: How Much Do You Know?
Sharks have been around for a long time, even before dinosaurs. While they live primarily in the ocean, some species can also be found in rivers and lakes. Sharks vary greatly in size, from just a few inches long to larger than buses. They have rows of replacement teeth for catching prey, rather than chewing food. Though they do not actively sleep, sharks do have periods of rest. While not normally dangerous to humans, sharks may occasionally bite people who enter their habitat. Their skin is covered in sharp scales called denticles instead of being smooth. Individual shark species have different diets, ranging from fish to shellfish to other sharks. Sharks face threats from overfishing by humans. One extinct species was

Stringray report for nikki valovich
Stingrays are carnivorous bottom-dwelling fish that feed on a variety of prey found on or near the seafloor like mollusks, crustaceans, and small fish. They use their powerful jaws and teeth to crush shells and detect prey via electrical signals. Stingrays come in many sizes from small species less than a foot wide to large manta rays over 20 feet wide. They are found worldwide in tropical, subtropical and temperate coastal waters where they use their camouflage to ambush prey and hide from predators on the seafloor. Stingrays are known for their venomous tail spines which they use for defense when threatened.
Australian Animals
1. The red kangaroo is the largest of Australian kangaroos and lives in large groups, feeding on grasses. It can leap over 5 meters and uses this to escape danger by fighting or fleeing.
2. Koalas live in trees and only eat eucalyptus leaves. Males are larger than females and southern koalas are larger than northern ones. They are generally placid and only active for around 2 hours each day.
3. Dingos are meat eaters that hunt alone or in family groups and will scavenge when necessary. Females give birth to up to eight puppies annually and wean them for two months.

The snake by Juani S
Snakes are reptiles found on every continent except Antarctica. They have no legs and no eyelids. There are over 3,400 snake species that vary greatly in size, from 10 cm to 9 meters long. Snakes use their forked tongue to smell and track prey. Some snakes can see infrared radiation to detect warm-blooded animals. Snakes are covered in scales and shed their skin periodically. They are carnivorous, eating small animals, birds, eggs or insects. Venomous snakes use venom to paralyze prey, while constrictors kill by coiling around their victim. In colder climates, snakes brumate or become inactive during winter instead of hibernating.
Extinct animals programme
This document discusses several extinct and endangered animal species. It provides details on extinct animals like the Dodo bird, which went extinct in 1662 in Mauritius island, and the Tasmanian tiger/Tylacine, which went extinct in 1880 in Australia due to hunting. Several dinosaurs that are now extinct are also described, like the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Ankylosaurus, and Spinosaurus. The document then discusses several animals that are currently endangered and nearing extinction, such as manatees, Philippine eagles, cheetahs, koalas, and polar bears. Habitat destruction and hunting by humans are cited as the primary threats. The author urges protecting these animals to prevent their extinction

Animal Study Leilah
Tigers are powerful predators that mainly eat large animals like wild pigs and cows. They have a strong sense of smell but sometimes need multiple attempts to catch prey, eating up to 60 pounds of meat in one night. Tigers exhibit different behaviors like enjoying swimming and having unique stripe patterns. They communicate and establish territory using vocal and visual signals. Once killed, tigers will drag their prey to a secure location to eat. There are only about 7,000 tigers remaining worldwide and they are classified as an endangered species due to threats like habitat loss and poaching for traditional medicine and skins.
2 e2 stingray project 2013 (final)
The stingray earned negative attention when Steve Irwin was fatally stung. Stingrays are aggressive and curious creatures with a natural instinct to sting what they contact. Their razor-sharp, serrated stinger attached to their flexible tail allows them to swiftly defend their territory. Stingrays can grow up to 14 feet long and reproduce by giving birth to live young.

Emily
Tigers mostly live in Asia where they have thick coats to withstand cold temperatures. They are nocturnal hunters that prey on deer, monkeys, pigs, and other large animals. Tigers have orange and black fur that helps them camouflage in forests and grasslands. Their populations are threatened by habitat loss and poaching for fur and medicines. If tigers lived at the South Pole, they would have even fluffier white fur, sharper claws and teeth for hunting fish, and webbed feet to aid in swimming to blend into the icy environment.

The monk seal eats various fish and octopus. It is diurnal and forages in open areas and under rocks. The seal molts and changes color as it ages. It was depicted on ancient Greek coins due to its association with gods. The monk seal is endangered mainly due to pollution and litter from human activities. Conservation programs like CITES regulate international trade of endangered species to protect vulnerable populations.
The amazing platypus
The platypus lives in eastern Australia in rivers, streams, and logs in rainforests. It has a duck-like bill, beaver-like tail, and eats small freshwater animals at night. The platypus is endangered due to habitat destruction, overhunting for fur, and pollution of waterways. Efforts to help the platypus include protection under CITES, education programs, and scientific study. With continued conservation efforts, the platypus may no longer be endangered in the future.
The amazing humpback whales
The humpback whale lives in the North Pacific Ocean and feeds on krill, plankton, and small fish. It uses bubbles to herd its prey and has a scientific name meaning "large-backed." Humpback whales were nearly hunted to extinction but are now protected, though their habitat is still threatened by pollution and entanglement in fishing gear. Conservation efforts aim to educate the public about not littering in the ocean and respecting marine wildlife.
The amazing gray wolf
The gray wolf lives in rocky mountain habitats of Wisconsin and Minnesota, where they hunt large prey like moose, elk, and caribou, as well as smaller animals such as beavers and rabbits. Gray wolves live in packs led by an alpha male or female, who maintain their status through physical fights, and communicate through distinctive howls to express feelings and mark territory.
Siberian tiger
The Siberian tiger lives in forests, grasslands, and other biomes in southern Korea, China, and Russia. It is nocturnal and hunts deer, boars, and other animals alone rather than sharing food. While its retractable claws help protect it, the Siberian tiger is endangered due to hunting for its fur, bones and meat as well as loss of habitat from fires. Conservation efforts under CITES aim to help protect the species through education.
Killer whale
Killer whales live in oceans around the world, including the Arctic, Antarctic, and tropical waters. They prey on many marine animals from fish and squid to larger whales, seals, and sea otters. Their population has declined due to historical hunting, boat traffic disturbing their habitat, and pollution in the oceans. Conservation efforts aim to reduce noise and trash pollution to improve conditions for killer whales.
Giant panda
The giant panda lives in broadleaf forests in the mountainous southwest region of China. The forests contain bamboo, which makes up 99% of the panda's diet and they can eat up to 48 pounds per day. Pandas are endangered due to loss of habitat from human activity like building hotels and overhunting. Conservation efforts in China include banning hunting and designating panda reserves to help protect and increase the giant panda population.
Fascinating sea otters
The sea otter lives in coastal waters less than 1 kilometer from shore, where it eats a variety of invertebrates and small fish for 3 hours per day. It uses tools like rocks to open shelled animals and is endangered due to overhunting and oil drilling, though protected areas and education efforts aim to help the species' recovery. The document concludes that sea otters are interesting as the smartest marine mammal and predicts their numbers and range will increase so they are no longer threatened.
Brown kiwi
The brown kiwi is a bird native to New Zealand that lives in forests and wetlands near pine trees, eats insects, spiders, fish, worms and mollusks by pecking and kicking at the ground, and is endangered due to pollution and hunting but efforts are being made to help the species.
Black footed ferret
The black-footed ferret lives in prairie dog burrows in the grasslands of North America, preying mostly on prairie dogs but also other small mammals. It is nocturnal and endangered due to hunting and poisoning, consuming 50-70 grams of meat per day and up to 100 prairie dogs per year, though conservation efforts aim to help the species.
Big grizzly bears
The grizzly bear lives in the tundra of North America where it eats a varied diet of plants, roots, berries, smaller animals, and meat. Standing up, grizzly bears can reach 7-8 feet tall. They are currently endangered due to hunting for their fur, but conservation efforts like restricting hunting have helped protect the species.
Baesh cougar
The puma lives in mountain biomes and eats various animals like rabbits, deer, and birds. It hunts through ambush, jumping from cliffs, and chasing prey until overpowering it with a powerful neck bite. The puma is endangered due to habitat loss from deforestation and pollution, as well as overhunting. International organizations like CITES help regulate trade of endangered species to protect animals like the puma.
Arctic wolf
The Arctic wolf lives in mountainous regions of Alaska in packs, usually sleeping in caves. It predominantly eats large prey like caribou and grizzly bears, eating several meals each day. The alpha wolf establishes dominance by eating first. Arctic wolves are endangered due to habitat loss and vehicle collisions. Conservation efforts like CITES aim to regulate international trade of endangered species and protect the wolves. With current protection efforts, the population of around 1,000 Arctic wolves may be saved from extinction.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
