by: Irisz, 6th grade

Turtles belong to one of oldest reptile groups in the word.
Just like your bones, a turtle’s shell is actually part of its skeleton. Some turtles are carnivores, others are herbivores and some are omnivores.
They eat grasses or fruits, but in the sea they eat squid,jellyfish.
Turtles are amniotes which means they breathe air and lay their eggs on land.
With so many different types of turtles,there is no average size.

Animals {Animal Facts}

by: Rebeka, 6th grade

I chose cats,because They are my favourites.

Cats were gods in ancient Egypt. They are domesticated. Cats have a strong,flexible body,quick reflexes,sharp teeth and retractable claws adapted to killing small prey. Cats can hear sounds too faint or too high in frequency for human ears, such as those made by  mice or other small animals.They can see in near darkness. Like most other mammals,cats have poor color vision and a better sense of smell than humans. Cats, despite being solitary hunters, are social species,and cats communication includes the use of a variety of vocalizations (mewing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling and grunting) as well as cat pheromones and types of cat-specific body language.

Now my hands hurt, so that’s all.
Bye.

Sheep {Animal Facts}

by: K. Mátyás, 6th grade

The sheep is one of the oldest domesticated animals. Their wool, milk and meat are really useful. Sheep are herbivores and even-toad ungulates. They’re ruminant animals so they have four stomachs. They eat only grass and water. They are mammals so they feed their young with milk. The little sheep need their mums for about 50-60 days to get milk. Their weight is about 4-5kg. In 1-2 years they become arieses and ewes. The new sheep can born once their mum is about 3-4 years old.

What is a nudibranch? {Animal Facts}

What is a nudibranch?

by: L. Máté, 6th grade

It’s a really interesting looking animal and it lives under the water. It is the size of a teacup. It moves at the bottom of the ocean. It’s a type of a sea slug. It has no bones (Well, I think if you look at it the first thing you think isn’t that it has tons of bones). Over 3 thousand species of nudibranch exist. It’s about 3 pounds so it’s not really heavy. They have a set of curved teeth. They use them to eat coral, sponges and fish eggs off the bottom of the ocean. If they eat they change their color. They are able to kill a fish. I chose this animal because it was the first animal that National Geographic Kids dropped out. Go check that website out!

Hamsters {Animal Facts}

by: Evi, 6th grade 

Hamsters are rodents. Hamsters have fur and the color of their fur can be shades of brown and black. Hamsters have different types. e.g. Syrian, Cambel, Winter white, Robovoski and Chines. Most hamsters size is 3-4 inches depending on the hamster’s type. Hamsters live for 1 year at most. Hamsters weigh 0.9kg. Hamsters have to chew things because their teeth get longer all the time. Hamsters can get sick very easily. Japanese people really like to draw them because hamsters are really cute and adorable. A lot of anime depends on hamsters, such as Himouto Umaru-Chan. Hamsters are mammals. When hamsters give birth they often eat their babies. If there are two hamsters  then they can fight and they sometimes kill each other, unfortunately.

Grey wolves lives in groups. A pack is a family of 7-8 wolves with a mom, dad and offspring. Wolves have  a special communication. Wolves looks like dogs. Wolves live in the forest or in the zoo. A wolf tries to save its babies and teaches them how to hunt. Wolf puppies really love to play. Wolves are scared by humans because they hunt the wolves. Wolves eat meat. Some people make wolves home pets because they really love this animal. Some people think wolves and dogs can’t see colors just black and white. But I think wolves and dogs see colors. Wolves don’t hibernate.

Pandas {Animal Project - Informational Writing}

by Bogi, 6th grade

Pandas are black and white.  Pandas resemble bears . Pandas can eat bamboo but they also can eat fish and small animals. They live in China in a misty and rainy forest. Only about 1,500 pandas exist in the world. The pandas’ molars are broad and flat. Pandas can climb up 13,000 feet and they are very good swimmers. Sometimes the male pandas relax in a 13,000 feet high tree. An adult female panda weighs 200 pounds. The panda is very shy because pandas can not go close to humans. This restricts pandas to a limited area. The panda is 165-300 lbs,  like a piano. The panda is slower then  a car because they can only run 18 mph. The panda is shorter than a school bus because they are 5.3-6.2 feet long.

Anacondas {Animal Project - Informational Writing}

by Nikki, 7th grade

The anaconda is classified as a reptile. It is the largest snake in the world because it can reach a length of 9 meters! They are also very heavy. They can weigh up to 227 kilograms. They do not kill their prey by delivering venom through a bite, but instead they wrap themselves around their prey and squeeze them. That also means that they are not herbivores, but carnivores. They can open their mouths wide enough to fit in a small deer, or a jaguar. They usually live for 10 years. Their common name is green anaconda because they are mostly green. There are also anacondas with darker colors. They have scales  which can be striped or they have colorful dots. This animal is very scary, but at the same time it is very interesting!

Jaguars {Animal Project - Informational Writing}

by Eszter, 7th grade

I’ve chosen the Panthera Onca, or the Jaguar, as it’s commonly known as. They have orange fur with the black "rosettes," spots that look like roses. There is also a rare type, the black Jaguar, which is black with black spots. As with other animals in "the big cat family", the Jaguar is a carnivore. It mostly eats fish, turtles, or caimans. Sometimes they eat deer, peccaries, capybaras, and tapirs. They can kill their prey with one bite. They live in South America, in forests, mountains, and deserts. They live for 12 and 15 years. They are going extinct. They can run 80 km/h. They are 100 kg. They can be 1.8 meters long.
