In Madagascar, they speak Malagasy, English, and French. They eat foods like rice, beef, pork, chicken, fish, crab, corn, peanuts, and potatoes that are grown in the many farming areas and obtained through hunting. The capital, Antanarivo, is located in the middle of Madagascar and is one of several cities, though Mahajanga is the largest city.White giraffe animals by lauren st john

Tiger sharkJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Tiger sharks are large, carnivorous sharks found in warm oceans around the world. They have a diverse diet, eating fish, smaller sharks, birds, and occasionally humans. Female tiger sharks lay eggs that hatch internally, and the young are born live. Though the mother leaves after birth, tiger sharks can live up to 40 years in saltwater and freshwater habitats across Asia, Africa, Australia, and North and South America. They are one of the most feared sharks due to their size, which can reach over 27 feet, and ability to thrive in both salt and fresh water environments.The snowy owl.ppt fisher

Ìý
The Snowy Owl lives in the arctic tundra, eats mainly lemmings but sometimes hares, and has distinctive yellow eyes and white plumage. Males hunt for food and cache lemmings to provision the nest where females lay 3-16 eggs on the ground. Their population levels fluctuate depending on available food sources but they are not currently endangered.RubyThroated Hummingbird
RubyThroated HummingbirdJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
The ruby-throated hummingbird is a small bird that lives in forests and builds nests. It eats nectar from flowers and sugar water, and has predators like frogs, dragonflies, mantises, hawks, and cats. Females lay two eggs per clutch and there are currently around 200,000 ruby-throated hummingbirds in populations.Tawny Owl
Tawny OwlJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
The tawny owl lives in woodlands and hilly areas across Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It eats small mammals like voles and mice, as well as small birds and fish. Tawny owl chicks are too large for their nests and must find new ones after leaving. The tawny owl faces threats from habitat loss and chemicals like DDT.Polar bear
Polar bearJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Polar bears are large carnivorous mammals that live in northern Russia, North America, and the Arctic. They can live on both land and in water, and their diet consists primarily of ringed seals, penguins, and fish. Females give birth to litters of 2-4 cubs every 2-3 years and care for their young for about two years. While the population was only around 10,000 in 1960, there are now approximately 40,000 polar bears worldwide, though they remain threatened by climate change and melting sea ice habitats.Piranha

Piranhas are carnivorous fish that live in groups in rivers and lakes throughout South America, particularly the Amazon River. They have sharp teeth used to feed on fish, birds, and small animals that enter the water, though attacks on humans are rare. Piranhas can grow up to 10 inches long and live for approximately 25 years in the wild.Lukes eclectus slide show

The Eclectus parrot is a tropical bird found in forests in parts of Australia and Indonesia. Males and females have highly contrasting colors, with emerald green males and red females. They eat fruits, nuts, and plant buds and blossoms. Eclectus parrots live in trees away from predators and have an incubation period of 26 days before chicks fledge from the nest around 84 days after hatching. When first discovered, people mistakenly thought male and female Eclectus were different species because of their vividly contrasting plumage.Karmas baby cormorants
Karmas baby cormorantsJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Great Cormorants have a wingspan of 50-60 inches and length of 34-40 inches, feeding on fish, water rats, frogs, crabs, and cods. They are found in loose flocks in Europe, Asia, USA, Australia, Africa, nesting in large groups near coasts, lakes, and rivers. Some farmers have killed cormorants by restricting their neck size to prevent eating and starving them, though they are excellent swimmers and build nests of grass, seaweed, and twigs.Snow Goose
Snow GooseJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
The Snow Goose lives in northeastern Siberia, North America, and Greenland. They have a wingspan of 50-65 inches and weigh between 5-7 pounds. They eat plants like grass, wheat, and rice. Snow Geese lay 4-5 eggs and are cared for by both parents. They are very noisy birds known for their shrill calls and honks.Snapping Turtle
Snapping TurtleJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Snapping turtles spend most of their time in water, with males having longer tails than females. They are omnivorous, eating carrion and guarding their eggs until covering them. While their powerful jaws can inflict serious injury, humans hunting them for food or sport are their main threat.Green turtle
Green turtleJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Green turtles are reptiles that can live both on land and in water, holding their breath for up to 7 hours underwater. They eat foods like lobster and jellyfish and lay around 100 ping pong ball sized eggs per batch. Though green turtles were nearly hunted to extinction by humans for their shells, flesh, and eggs, they are no longer endangered thanks to reduced hunting, though sharks still prey on them and they could still benefit from additional conservation efforts.The Great Flamingo
The Great FlamingoJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Flamingos breed and live near ponds and lakes. They have a diet consisting of small fish and mollusks. Flamingos face many predators like lions and lay only one egg at a time, while their eggs were eaten by ancient Romans. Their knees are actually their ankles.Emperor Penguin
Emperor PenguinJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
The Emperor Penguin is one of the largest seabirds that lives in Antarctica. It has thick feathers to stay warm in the icy conditions and uses its powerful flippers and feet/tail to swim and steer through the ocean. Emperor Penguins eat krill and ice fish. Males and females have different roles, with males caring for the eggs while females go fishing, because males are too aggressive around food. Children can do an activity with buckets of sand and water to learn how penguin bones help them swim compared to flying birds. Emperor Penguins are currently not endangered but still need protection.Bottle Nose Dolphin

Bottlenose dolphins primarily eat fish and squid, living in groups in oceans around places like New York and Mexico. They typically have one baby at a time, though twins are possible but rarely survive. While fast swimmers, their predators include sharks.Bald Eagles
Bald EaglesJerika Shadomy-Spencer

Eaglets are grey and fluffy with big feet. Male and female bald eagles differ in appearance. Bald eagles eat fish and sea birds and live in forested areas near bodies of water. Eaglets mature from brown-headed juveniles to the white-headed adults iconic of bald eagles.Boa constrictor
Boa constrictorJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
The boa constrictor is a long, flexible snake found in Brazil that eats small mammals, birds, and climbs trees to catch prey. It gives live birth to litters of 10-30 babies and while it is not venomous, other boa species may be. The document provides details on the boa constrictor's appearance, diet, habitat, reproduction, and warns that humans can pose a danger by killing them for their skins.Nile Crocodile
Nile CrocodileJerika Shadomy-Spencer
Ìý
Nile crocodiles can be distinguished from alligators by their wide and short mouths compared to alligators' long and skinny faces. They have large, sharp teeth that they use to eat mostly meat from animals like zebras and oxen. Nile crocodiles live primarily in the Nile River and are called Nile crocodiles due to their habitat. When born, Nile crocodiles are only a few centimeters long.

The Earth is composed of an inner core of solid iron, an outer core of liquid iron, a thin rocky mantle, and a thin rocky crust. It has a diameter of around 7,926 miles and rotates once every 24 hours. The Earth orbits the Sun at a distance of around 93 million miles and has one moon. The Earth is around 75% water and 25% land, and its surface is divided into 15 tectonic plates that make up its crust. The atmosphere contains nitrogen, oxygen, water vapor and other gases.Mercury

Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and is about one-third the size of Earth. It has no moons and rotates slowly, taking about 59 Earth days to complete a single day while orbiting the sun every 88 Earth days. Despite being close to the sun, Mercury has an extremely thin atmosphere composed of oxygen, sodium, and helium.More Related Content
