GRIZZLY BAER

IT IS 1 OF THE BIGGEST ANIMAL ON LAND IT IS AN EXALLENT HURNTER AND THE FOOD IT EATS MOST OF THE TIME IS FISH AND HONEY, IT LOVES

THE 2 TYPES OF FOOD

WHAN TI HUNTES IT TAKS THE WEKER TYPES LIKE THE FISH, HUMANS,

AND OTHER TYPES OF FOOD IT CAN GO ABOUT 7 TO15 KM IN 1 DAY AND TI ONLY MOVES WHEN THE IS NO FOOD IN THE FORREST.

Animal

Alligator

An alligator is an animal which is like a crocodile. Alligators have a rough skin, weird eyes that are really creepy to look at and it can move on land and on water it can stay in water. Alligators give birth approximately about 5 babies per female and they mate differently. The alligators are really dangerous animals to keep so you will have to ask for permits for you to keep one and your place must have ponds and dams so it costs large sums of money. Alligators have 4 legs and a long tale and they are meat eaters. Their type of food is fish. Alligators move fast and it can not stay in one place it likes to move in one place to another. Alligators have that rough skin to protect it self from the predators. Alligators bites re really toxic and you must take immediate action and go to hospital.

ANIMAL TIGER

MY LOVELY ANIMAL IS A TIGER I LOVE TIGER BECAUSE IM TOUGH AND STRONG LIKE A TIGER MOST THING THAT I LIKE ABOUT TIGER IS THAT IT HAS BLACK STRIPES AND TIGER ONLY EAT MEAT TIGER LIVE IN THE WILD.I LIKE TIGER A LOT ITS A CARNIVOR .TIGER IS BROWN ITS HAVE BLACK STRIPES.ITS MOVE AROUND THE WILD.

MY ANIMAL IS MONKEY.

I HAVE CHOSEN THIS ANIMAL BECAUSE I LIKE IT,IT CARES ABOUT ITS OWN BABIES.THIS ANIMAL IS FOUND IN THE BUSHES AND IT EATS BANANAS.YHIS ANIMAL IS MOST IN THE BUSHES FOUND IN THE TREES. IT LOOKS LIKE A PERSON IT HAS LEGS AND HANDS IT MOVES SLOWLY SOME TIMES AND SOME TIMES IT MOVES VERY FAST.IT IS VERY TINY BUT IT CAN RUN VERY FAST WHEN YOU ARE CHASING IT.IT IS BROWN IN SKIN COLOURAND IT HAS BLACK EYES.

PANDA BEAR

Panda bears are beautiful black and white bears that live in cold and icy places in the ANTLENTIC OCEAN. Pandas are very fast animals but you wouldn’t notice that when you see it running .These kind of bears eat fish only .Panda bears like attacking unwanted animals or people around their places .The most funny thing about panda bears they fight like people and they can even swim.

THE ANIMAL THAT I HAVE ABOUT TWO CHOSEN TO WRITE ABOUT IS THE DIFFERENT SNAKES IN THE WORLD; in the world there are many types of snakes we have. THESE SNAKES ARE FOUND IN PLACES WERE THERE IS WARM SHADES AND IN BRUSHES IN YARDS WERE IT IS NOT NOSY.SNAKES MOVE INDIFFERENT PLACES WERE THEY COULD HUNTFOOD THEMSELVES.SNAKES VERY DANGEROUS TO ANY-PERSON WHO BUSY MAKES NOISE AROUND THEM.

THE ANIMAL THAT I LOVE AND LEARN

The animal I would like to learn of is gaboon viper a snake that is dangerous of them all. The gaboon snake has a head like an arrow, it`s sharp in front and it takes time for the place where it had bite a person

The gaboon viper can stay for a long time with out food and water at the place where it goes and where it stays. This snake can move 90 km/h that means faster than a human being. This snake eats raw meat and alive and not dead meat.

My favorite animal is a dog, I like dogs because some of them help people who cant msee [blind people],they take care of these people. Dogs are very good to have them at your home. They protect us, they bark a lot when there is someone they don’t know. It is very fun playing with them because they like playing and they move very fast. Mostly I like pat dogs; they are very cute and easy to hold. dogs are very dangerous they can bite you and when they do you should go to the clinic and have an injection so that you cannot get the disease of a dog and when it barks at you don’t run just stand or walk away as if you don’t see it because if you run it can catch and bite you

Common Iguana

I chose this animal because, I like the colors of its skin. I am afraid of reptiles but this one really got me, it’s such a charming animal with its long tail and soft skin. This animal is a carnivore because it eats meaty foods, such as flies, and mosquitoes. It commonly stays in a tree branch and moves from one place to another very quickly and swiftly. It’s green and has black and red stripes above and yellow and black stripes below. This reptile is an amphibian because it lives both on land and in water.

HORSES

HOW DO BIRDS WINGS ALLOW THE BIRD TO FLY?

THERE ARE ALMOST AS MANY WAYS OF FLYING AS THERE ARE KINDS OF BIRDS.ALBATROSSESGLIDE AND SOAR WITH LONG NARROW WINGS STRETCHED OUT,SOMETIMES STAYING ALOFT FOR HOURS WITHOUT A SINGLE WING BEAT.HUMMING BIRDS , ON THE OTHER HAND , CAN'T REST THEIR WINGS FOR EVEN A SECOND IN FLIGHT. WOODPECKERSHAVE A SWOOPING FLIGHT, CROWS FLY IN A STRAIGHT LINE, AND SWALLOWS DART AND WEAVE EVERY WHICH WAY.

DESIGNED FOR FLIGHT

BIRD WINGS ARE NOT THE ONLY PART OF THEIR BODIES DESIGNED FOR FLIGHT. JUST ABOUT EVERY PART OF A BIRD BODY IS SPECIALLYADAPTED TO HELP THE BIRD FLY.A BIRD'S "CENTRE OF GRAVITY" IS THE BALANCE POINT BETWEEN ITS TWO WINGS AND BETWEEN ITS HEAD AND TAIL.

TAKING OFF!!!!!

WE HUMANS COULD TRY LEAPING AND FLAPPING OUR ARMS, OR RUNNING INTO A STIFF WIND, BUT WE WOULD'NT GET VERY FAR OFF THE GROUND! THE REASON BIRDSCAN IS BECAUSE OF THE SPECIAL SHAPE OF THEIR WINGS .THE BONES OF A BIRD'S WINGS ARE IN FRONT, COVERED WITH A SMOOTH LAYER OF FEATHERS THAT TAPER TOWARDS THE BACK.THE BACK OF THE WING IS JUST A SINGLE LAYER OF FLIGHT FEATHERS.WHEN AIR COMES STRAIGHT TOWARDS AN AIRFOIL THE SPECIAL CAUSES THE AIR TO FLOW FASTER ON TOP OF THE WING THAN UNDER IT.

How Do Dogs Move around

Dogs are very agile and graceful animals.Dogs move in different ways.Some dogs would waggle when they walk.Others wuuld seem to be in such a hurry while another breed would seem to be always strolling in the park.A Greyhound would run at full speed while a Bulldog encumbered by a heavy body will have a slow gait.Terriers and Poodles always provide amusements thus they are always seen tumbling around.A dog would run,gallop,trot,sprint or aimlessy amble around.Walking is a dog thing.A dog's walk is termed as diagonal walk simply because diagonal lrgs are simultaneously moving in the same direction.Right foreleg and left hind leg will move at the same time going to the same direction.This will be followed by the simultaneous movement of the left foreleg and the right hind leg.

HOW SNAKES MOVE

SNAKES HAVE DIFFERENT FOUR WAYS OF MOVING. SINCE SNAKES DONT HAVE LEGS THEY USE THEIR MUSCLES AND SCALES TO HELP THEM DO THE 'walking'.

SERPENTINE METHOD: THEY MOVE IN A WAVY MOTION.THEY WILL PUSH OFF OF ANY BUMP OR OTHER SURFACE LIKE ROCKS,TREES ETC.THIS MOVEMENT IS ALSO KNOWN AS LATERAL UNDULATION.

CONCERTINA METHOD:THIS IS A MORE DIFFICULT WAY FOR SNAKES TO MOVE BUT IS EFFECTIVE IN TIGHT SPACES.THE SNAKE BRACES THE BACK PORTION OF THEIR BODY WHILE PUSHING AND EXTENDING THE FRONT PORTION.

SIDEWINDING:THE SNAKE APPERS TO THROW ITS HEAD FORWARD AND THE REST OF ITS BODY FOLLOWS WHILE THE HEAD IS THROWN FORWARD AGAIN.THIS IS ALSO A DIFFICULT MOTION TO DESCRIBE BUT ITS OFTEN USED BY SNAKES TO MOVE ON LOOSE OR SLIPPERY SURFACES.

RECTILINEAR:THE SNAKE USES SOME OF THE WIDE SCALES ON ITS BELLY TO GRIP THE GROUND WHILE PUSHING FORWARD WITH THE OTHERS.

HOW DO THEY MOVE?

MOST SNAKES MOVE BY COILING THEIR BODIES INTO A SERIES OF S-SHAPEP LOOPS.SOME LARGE SNAKES,LIKE BOAS,MOVE IN A WAY SIMILARTO A CATERPILLAR.SNAKES THAT LIVE IN THE DESERT HAVE A HARDER TIME GETTING THE TRACTION NECESSARY MOVEMENT. THESE SNAKES ARE CALLED SIDEWINDERS,MOVE IN A SIDEWAYS MOTION THAT ALLOWS THEM TO SLITHER ALONG ON THE EVER-SHIFTING SURFACE.

How do dogs move

Dogs move in different ways,different breeds would have their different signature movements.some dogs would waggle when they walk,some would amble.Others would seem to be in such a hurry while another breed would seem to be alawats strolling in the park.A Greyhound would run at full speed while a bulldog encumbered by a heavy body will have a slow gait.

All dog breeds have different ways of moving but all dogs walk.Walking is a dog thing the walk and trot entail the same leg movements.the trot m faster movement though would be

Snakes have four ways of moving around .Since they dont have legs they use their muscles and their scales to do the walking.Sepentine method; This motion is what most people think of when they think of snakes .Snakes will push off any bump or other surface, rocks trees e.t.c to get going .They move in a wavy motion.They would not be able to move over slick surfaces like glass at all. This movement is also known as lateral undulation.

This is a more difficult way for the snake to move but is effectively in tight spaces the snakes braces the back portion of their body while pushing and extending the front portion .Then the snakes drops the front portion of their body and straightens an pulls the back portion along. It is almost like they through themselves forward.

SNAKES

snakes move in many different ways since they don't have legs they use their muscles and their scales to walk.

snakes have no arms and legs as well,but they swift through grass,sand and in some cases they can move through water.snakes can easily climb trees.

they usually rely on the grounds rough surface to provide resistance,something for them to push against that is not slippery.

most snakes move by coiling their bodies into a series of s-shaped loops, which each loop pushing against the other like boas. snakes move in a way similar to a catapiller ,inching along the ground. snakes that live in desert have a harder time getting the traction necessary for movement. these snakes,called sidewinders,move in sideways motion that allows them to slither along on the ever-shifting sandy surface.

snakes have certain advantages thanks to the unique bodies.not only they can move quickly and easily over and through a variety of landscapes they can also move in near silence ,making it easy for them to sneak up on their prey, and their narrow, flexible bodies allow them to fit into small crevices and holes where they can wait for unsuspecting animals to come along. or where they can hide from predators.

HOW SNAKES MOVE

Snakes have four ways of moving around.Snakes have no arms or legs thet use their muscles and their scales to do the walking.Snakes can move fairly swiftly through grass,sand and in some cases water and thet can easily climb tree.Snakes can achieve amazing mobility thanksto well-developed muscles and a row of scales called ventral scales,on the underside of their bodies.Snakes usually rely on the ground's rough surface to provide resistance,something for them to push against that isnt't slippery.Most snakes move by coiling their bodies into a series of S-shaped loops with each loop pushing against the ground.Snakes that live in the desert have a hardrder time getting the traction necessary for movement. Thesesnakes are called sidewinders'move in a sideways motion that allows them to slither along on the ever-shifting sandy surface.

Snakes can move quickly and easily over through a variety of landscapes they can move in silense. These Are There Different Methods That Snakes Have;Serpentine method,Concertina method,Sidewinding and rectilinear method

HOW DO BIRDS MOVE

There are almost as many ways of flying as there are kinds of birds.Albastrosses glide and soar with long narrow wings stretched out,sometimes staying aloft for hours without a single wing beat.

FACTS ABOUT BIRDS

Birds don't have teeth or nose.

Their tail and wing bones are very short.

Bird lungs don't fill up with alot of air, like ours do.

DESIGNED FOR FLIGHT

Bird wings are not hte only part of their bodies designed for flight.Just about every part of a bird body is specially adapted to help a bid fly.A bird's center of gravity is the balance point between Its two wings and between Its head and tail.

GETTING UP IN THE AIR

Birds have many different ways of taking off.some, like loons run into the wind,and the rush of air beneath their wings lifts them up.

HOW DO SNAILS MOVE

The word snail is loosely used for almost all members of molluscan class which coiled shells in the adult stage.most snails move by gliding long on their muscular foot,which is lubricated with mucus.

snails are quit slow ,but they always get to wear they need to go,they have what is considered to be a flat foot beneath their body.there are muscles in this foot begin to expand and contract.by doing this there is a movement that actually pushes the snail along on their journey.the mucus that is secreted provides protection for the snails if they happen to be walking on dangerously pointy things.

How do dogs move?

Dogs are very agile and graceful.The nimble lithe movement of a dog being paraded in a show ring would never fail to draw out a lot of oohs and aahs from spectators who are watching.

A dog that is hunting and following a trail will walk slowly.The walk will turn into a run as the dog scents the quarry.Police dogs can smell drugs from a person that is carring them.Some dogs can scence evile spirits that come in a certain home. Some people say there are dogs that are disable .

how snakes move

snakes have four ways of moving around they don't have legs they use their muscles and their scales to do the walking.They move in a wavy motion.This movement is also known as lateral undulation.

Snakes have no arms or legs, yet they can move fairly swiftly through grass,sand ,and in some cases, water and they can easily climb trees . snakes can achieve such amazing mobility thanx to well developed muscles and a row of scales,called ventral scales,on the undersides of their bodies. snakes that live in the desert have a harder time getting the traction nesecary for movement.

HOW DO DOGS MOVE?

DOGS MOVE IN DIFFERENT WAYS.DIFFERENT BREEDS WOULD HAVE THEIR DIFFERENTSIGNATURE MOVEMENTS. SOME DOGS WOULD WAGGLE WHEN THEY WALK;SOME AMBLE.OTHERS WOULD SEEM TO BE IN SUCH A HURRY WHILE ANOTHERBREED WOULD TO BE ALWAYS STROLLING IN THE PARK.A DOG WOULD RUN ;GALLOP;SPRINT OR AIMLESSLYAMBLE AROUND.ALL DOG BREEDS HAVE DIFFERENT WAYS OF

.MOVING BUT ALL DOGS WALK.WALKING IS A THING.

RIGHT FORELEG AND LEFT HIND LEG WILL MOVE AT THE SAME TIME GOING TO THE SAME DIRECTION.THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY THE LEFT SIMULTANEOUS MOVEMENT OF THE LEFT FORELEG AND THE RIGHT HIND LEG.

A DOG THAT IS HUNTING AND FOLLOWING A TRAIL WILL WALK SLOWLY.THE WALK WILL TURN INTO A RUN AS THE DOG SCENTS THE QUARRY.THE RUN WILL TURN INTO A FULL GALLOP AS SOON AS THE DOG SEES THE ANIMAL IT IS HUNTING.AN ENTHUSIASTICALLY RUNNING DOG WOULD SLOW DOWN ITS MOVEMENT AS IT APPROCHES THE MASTER.

HOW WINGS ALLOW BIRDS TO FLY

A bird has many types of its wings.It has eleven layers of feathers in its wings.To fly well,birds must have most of their wieght in their center of gravity,and very little weight in front of or behind it. Birds have many different ways of taking off. Some birds run into the wind and rush of air beneath their wings lifts them up.Others jump of cliffs and other high perches.For example CHIMNY SWIFTS simply let go of their chimney perch and fall into the air.Some birds can just go straight up with perched position without jumping

HOW DO SNAILS MOVE AROUND

The word snail is usely used for almost all members of the molluscan class GASTROPODA which have coiled shells in the udult stage.Most snails move by gliding along on their muscular foot, which is lubricated with mucus.

snails moveat a proverbially low speed.they produce mucus in orderto aid locomotion by reducing friction,and the mucus also helpsreducethe snails riskof mechanicalinjury from sharp objects.

snails move in a gliding way,powered by contracting many muscles.as it contract its muscle slime is produced which allows the snailto glide on surfaces.

snails are quite slow but they always get to where they need to go!they have what is considered to be a flat foot beneath their body.there are muscles in this foot begin to expand and contract.by doing this the is a movement that actually that pushes the snail along on their journey.the mucus that is secreted provides protection for the snails if they happen to be walking on dangerously pointy things.

snails are not the fastest creature on earth.you can set a snail at the end of your driveway and take a 12 hour nap by the time it reaches the end.they have been ''clocked' at a speed of 008 miles and hour. snails crawl on glass of a window or aquarium.they reduce friction.those snails which do not have a shell,or only a very small shell are usually called slugs

HOW DO BIRDS FLY

BIRDS HAVE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS OF TAKING OFF.SOME LIKE LOONS THEY RUN AND THEN GET THE WIND BEFORE THEY CAN FLY.THE RUSH OF AIR BENBATH THEIR WINGS LIFTS THEM

WE HUMANS CAN TRY LEAPING AND FLAPPING OUR ARMS.OR RUNNING INTO A STIFF WIND,BUT WE WOULD'T GET VERY FAR OFF THE GROUND!

THE REASON BIRDS CAN BECAUSE OF THE SPECIAL SHAPE OF THEIR WINGS,THE PEOPLE WHO STUDY AERODYNAMICS SAY A WING HAS THIS SHAPE TO SERVE AS AN AIRFOIL.

HOW FISH SWIM

Fishe swim to breath,eat and move in the water.Fish muscles look like sideways W's called MYOMERES.The muscles contract from side and front to back.The fishes body pushes againts the ware and moves the fish forward.Fins help fine tune swimming.The caudal fin,or tail fin,increases speed.

The pectoral and pelvic fins steer up or down.They also help fish turn and stop.The dorsal fin and anal fin upright in the water-as the keel on the bottom of a sail boat keeps it upright.

Fish tales

The caudal,or tail fins adds an extra forward kick to the fishes swimming.Tail shapes vary depending on how the fishes swims or where it lives.Crescent shaped tails sare for swiming fast for long distances.Lake sturgeon forked shape tails are also suited for fast swimming,but they are helpful in making turns.

Yellow bullhead catfish rounded tails are bulit for swimming slowly.Fish swim using their muscles,tail,fins and body shape.Body shapes vary depending on ow fish swim or where they live,understanding this idea.
