5 S Kangaroo
Kangaroos belong to a large family of up to sixty species. They carry their young in pouches and live in groups called mobs dominated by the largest male. Baby kangaroos are called joeys and are only about 0.03 ounces at birth, hopping into their mother's pouch to nurse and grow until leaving it around 8 months to a year old. Kangaroos inhabit forests, woodlands, grassy plains and savannas in Australia and New Guinea, surviving off grasses and succulent plants without needing much water. They can hop at speeds up to 30 mph and leap 30 feet using their tails for balance.
"The troot in the shed" by Hannah and Rebecca
The mother trout lays her eggs in a nest in the ground, which the male then covers with sand. The eggs hatch into alevin trout, which then develop into fry as they grow to resemble miniature adult trout. The fry then become parr trout, developing distinctive markings and able to stay in freshwater or migrate to the sea to become sea trout. The trout in the document have survived past the alevin stage, with their yolk sacs shrinking each time the narrator checks on them.
Mexican spotted owl
The Mexican spotted owl is an endangered carnivorous bird that eats small mammals and lives in old growth forests and canyons of the southwestern US and Mexico. Its habitat is threatened by rising temperatures that make its environment hotter and drier, increasing disease, and loss of old growth forest. People can help by advocating for wildlife protection, adopting owls to support conservation efforts, and protecting forest lands.

The grassland biome is dry with scarce trees and vegetation. It can be found on several continents including North America, South Africa, and Australia. The soil is less fertile and temperatures range from 61°F to 91°F. Common plants include various grasses, flowers, and trees while animals include lions, zebras, giraffes, and rabbits. The African wild dog sits at the top of a food chain that could be disrupted if the grass or other food sources were wiped out.
Animals and adaptation
Animals and Adaptation discusses how animals adapt both structurally and behaviorally in order to survive in their environments. It provides examples of structural adaptations like thick fur coats and behavioral adaptations like moving in large groups. The document then focuses on penguins, describing their structural adaptations like dense feathers and behavioral adaptations like huddling in large groups to stay warm. It notes that while penguins' structural adaptations help with things like insulation and camouflage, their behavioral adaptations of returning to the same breeding locations make them vulnerable to predators.
"Troot in the shed" by Coleen, Anna, Aimee
The document summarizes the life cycle of brown trout from spawning through different stages. When spawning, the female trout digs a nest in the gravel called a redd and lays her eggs there before covering them up. The eggs hatch into alevins that have a yolk sac and later become fry and then parr juveniles with fingerprint-like scales. Brown trout then decide whether to become smolts adapted to saltwater or remain in freshwater as adults.
Animals
The document lists various animals grouped by their habitats, including lions, zebras, and giraffes in savannas; tigers, gorillas and pandas in rainforests and tropics; fish, whales and dolphins in oceans; kangaroos and emus in Australia; penguins and seals in polar regions; foxes, bears and squirrels in forests; and camels, snakes and scorpions in deserts.
Life cycle of the brown trout zach
This document summarizes the life cycle of brown trout and sea trout, which are actually the same fish. It describes the stages the fish goes through from egg (ovas) to alevin, then fry and parr. When the fish reaches a certain stage, it must make a choice to become either a brown trout living in freshwater like lakes or rivers, or a sea trout that undergoes a process to live in saltwater oceans, providing more food but also more predators. The document concludes by mentioning some alevins are being kept and observed by a class.

Arabian oryx
The Arabian Oryx is one of the mammals. It is a creature well suited to the arid conditions of the Desert. Medium-sized antelope weighing 65 - 75 kg (140 - 170 lb). Prior to its extinction in the wild, it is believed to have occurred in flat and undulating gravel plains intersected by shallow wadis and depressions, and the dunes edging sand deserts.
Penguins in antarctica
The document describes several species of penguins and their adaptations for living in Antarctica. It notes that populations of some penguin species like Adelie and Rockhopper penguins are declining. Two studies found that penguins are struggling with the effects of global warming, with Adelie penguins having trouble finding food due to giant icebergs and Magellanic penguin chicks dying from heavy rain or heat waves. The studies indicate penguins' ability to survive is threatened by climate change impacts on their habitats and food sources.
Animals
This document lists different animals grouped by their habitats, including animals that live in savannas like lions and zebras, rainforests and tropics like tigers and pandas, oceans like fish and whales, Australia like kangaroos and emus, polar regions like penguins and seals, forests like foxes and bears, and deserts like camels and snakes. The animals are presented without descriptions in a categorized list format.
Royal albatrosses or diomedeidae
Northern royal albatrosses have a wingspan of over 3 meters which allows them to fly long distances over the oceans in search of squid and fish to eat. They can live up to 60 years and weigh around 9 kilograms. Albatrosses are rarely seen on land except to breed, laying one egg every two years. They use their specialized nostrils and ability to float on water to help them survive at sea for long periods.
Summers Emperor Penguins
Emperor penguins are large birds that live in Antarctica. They can grow up to 1.2 meters tall and have a lifespan of 15-50 years. Emperor penguins survive the harsh Antarctic climate through a layered feather coat and a large body size that helps retain heat. They mainly eat fish and squid caught near Antarctica.
Desert animal adaptations
This document discusses how God adapted various desert plants and animals to survive in the harsh desert environment. It describes how camels can go long periods without food or water due to stored fat in their hump. Rabbits and birds like owls are well-camouflaged and nocturnal. Lizards can drop their tails and chameleons can change color for protection. Cacti have thick skins and roots to store water. The Bible prohibited eating some animals like rabbits and birds for the Israelites. Overall, the document shows how God gave desert creatures special traits and behaviors to endure the desert's extreme heat, aridity, and lack of resources.
Camel
The camel is a large mammal that lives in the hot desert climates of North Africa, the Middle East, and Australia. Camels can grow up to 11 feet tall and weigh over 1,500 pounds. They have thick fur to protect them from the sun and small ears to prevent sand from entering. Camels eat tough desert plants and can go weeks without drinking water by storing water in their humps. They are well-adapted to survive in arid environments.
Emperor penguins by emily
Emperor penguins are the largest penguin species, standing 115cm tall and weighing between 23-40kg depending on their breeding cycle. They breed in large colonies on the frozen ice of Antarctica during the winter, with the males incubating the single egg on their feet while the females gather food. After the eggs hatch, the parents brood their young for 50 days before fledging out to sea. Emperor penguins are excellent divers, reaching depths of over 500m to hunt for fish, krill, and squid to survive in the harsh Antarctic environment.

Habitat reading texts
The document describes several habitats of the world including polar regions, deserts, oceans, jungles/rainforests, and mountains. The polar regions are the Arctic and Antarctica, home to polar bears, snowy owls, and orca. Deserts are very dry places where kangaroo rats, cacti, and desert foxes have adapted to live. Oceans cover 70% of the planet, with the largest being the Pacific Ocean which contains 25,000 islands and sharks, turtles, and seahorses. Jungles are brighter than rainforests and allow plants to grow more easily, sheltering monkeys and jaguars. Mountains form from volcanic eruptions and provide shelter,

The golden rumped elephant shrew lives in dense coastal scrub forests and semi-deciduous lowland forests, eating leaf litter, worms, insects, and spiders. It has a long flexible nose and small body that allow it to forage for food, and faces predators like humans and any larger animals, though it has a commensal relationship with robin chats that follow the shrews through the forest.
Penguins
Penguins are a group of aquatic, flightless birds that live in the southern hemisphere. There are over 20 penguin species classified into 6 genera. Penguins have various adaptations for swimming, diving, thermoregulation, and respiration. They breed and nest in large colonies, with both parents caring for their single chick. Their primary threats are predators and climate change impacts on their habitats and food sources.
Biology 1.2 - Dumbo Octopus
The dumbo octopus lives at extreme depths of 7,000 meters in the open ocean where there is no light and cold temperatures. It uses its fin-like ears to swim and has a web of skin connecting its arms. Females can store sperm for long periods and develop eggs at different stages, allowing them to reproduce when conditions are suitable. Dumbo octopuses prey on pelagic invertebrates and are preyed on by some fish and marine mammals, but they face few threats due to living in such deep ocean depths.

Kangaroos
There are four main species of kangaroos found only in Australia: the Red kangaroo, Eastern Grey kangaroo, Western Grey kangaroo, and Antilopine kangaroo. Kangaroos live in habitats across Australia like bushland, woodland, forests, grasslands and scrublands. They are the only large animals that hop for transportation and can reach speeds up to 60 km/hr. Kangaroos live in mobs and have few predators like dingoes, wedge-tailed eagles, and humans, though they also had many extinct predators. They are herbivores that eat grasses and shrubs.

She was surprised by how gentle some large animals like rhinos and tapirs were. The experience gave her a new appreciation for the animals and she would highly recommend it.
Altruism in nature. english
This document discusses altruism and self-sacrifice in the animal kingdom. It provides numerous examples of animals making great sacrifices for the sake of their offspring, from birds who work tirelessly feeding their young every few minutes, to penguins that go without food for four months to protect their eggs, to crocodiles that gently transport hatchlings to water in their mouths. The document argues that such maternal love and devotion cannot be explained by evolution or natural selection, and must have been inspired by God, who created all living things. It also critiques Darwin's theory of evolution and natural selection.

Anacondas are large, nonvenomous snakes found in tropical South America. They live in swamps, rivers, and other bodies of water near rainforests. Anacondas reach up to 35 feet in length and feed on large prey like deer, pigs, birds, and fish. They reproduce through mating balls where multiple males swarm around a single female in an attempt to breed. While anacondas are not currently threatened, loss of habitat in tropical rainforests affects their populations.

Stunning photos 4 Smallest Animals
The document lists and describes the smallest known animals in the world, including the Kitti's hog-nosed bat which is only over an inch long, the bee hummingbird which is 2 1/2 inches long, and the Paedocypris fish which grows to about 1/3 of an inch. Many of the smallest animals live on islands and have undergone evolutionary changes like dwarfism due to their isolated environments, such as the Brookesia micra chameleon from Madagascar. The pygmy mouse lemur, discovered in Madagascar in 1993, is the world's smallest lemur at only 5 inches long.

Wildlife Ngorongoro Crater
- 1. Wildlife, Tanzania 2012 On our Kilimanjaro climb trip we spent a day in the Ngorongoro Crater where wildlife is abundant.
- 3. Zebra - Equus quagga Each individual has a unique stripe pattern.
- 4. Golden Jackal, canis aureus Great sequence later in the show of a jackal chasing a newborn Thompson’s gazelle.
- 5. Cape Buffalo, syncerus caffer One big animal!
- 6. Cape Buffalo
- 7. Wildebeest, connochaetes taurinus Tens of thousands of these curious creatures in the crater.
- 8. Wildebeest with newborn This youngster is probably only a week or two old. We saw adult females with placenta still attached and babies with the umbilical chord still attached.
- 9. Warthog, Phacochoerus africanus Funny looking, but nobody messes with them except maybe a very hungry lion. They tolerate the birds as they eat bugs and ticks.
- 10. Thompson’s Gazelle, eudorcas thomsonii Lots of very young babies like this one.
- 11. Weaver nests
- 12. Black Stork, ciconia nigra
- 13. Ostrich, struthio camelus Big Bird
- 14. Kori Bustard, ardeotis kori Love the name!
- 15. Black Kite, milvus migrans Lots of them around the lunch spot. Not safe to eat chicken in the open. A friend had a piece of chicken taken out of her hand halfway to her mouth by a kite.
- 16. Grey Crowned Crane, balearica regulorum National bird of Uganda
- 17. Grant’s Gazelle, nanger granti Larger than the Tompson’s.
- 18. Black Rhinoceros, diceros bicornis Battleship of the savanna. Endangered because people in Asia believe that the ground up horn of the Black Rhino is an aphrodisiac.
- 19. Spotted Hyena, crocuta crocuta
- 20. African Elephant, loxodonta africana Males tend to hang out in the crater while the families stick to the crater rim. (fewer predators)
- 22. You can just drive around me.
- 23. Lion, panthera leo A gorgeous female probably not more than 15’ from our vehicle.
- 25. Baboon, papio anubis Do not feed them!
- 26. Lion Love When the female is in heat a lion couple may mate as many as 20 times. Better safe than sorry.
- 27. Predator/Prey • We were privileged to get to see a Jackal attempting to take a baby (1 to 2 week old) Thompson’s Gazelle. • What followed was one of the most remarkable scenes.
- 28. Young Thompson’s Gazelle Separated from its mother, the baby was vulnerable.
- 30. The chase is on As soon as the jackal began to chase the baby gazelle, who was amazingly fast, the mother gazelle ran at the jackal, trying to distract and/or slow it down.
- 31. The jackal catches the baby But because the mother gazelle is in close pursuit the jackal can’t stop to finish the kill. The baby dropped to the ground and the jackal overran it.
- 32. Jackal trying to scare Mom off.
- 33. Now several adult gazelles get involved.
- 34. They will just NOT leave me alone!
- 35. OK OK, uncle, I give up, leave me alone.
- 36. The End We had an amazing day in Ngorongoro Crater. Such a beautiful lush environment where dozens of species live in a balanced system of predators and prey drawn to the crater by the abundant water, good grazing, and protected environment.
