Wooot Wednesday

In Class:
We watched a movie about all different kinds of animals and how they survive in their surroundings. We wrote down 20 facts, thoughts, or questions about the movie and handed it in.

Facts from the movie:
  • Antarctica can reach temperatures of 40 below
  • the seal is the only animal that can live there permanently
  • seals keep warm by generating heat within the body, while the fur keeps it trapped inside
  • the flies can drain a pint of blood per day, in order to avoid these flies, reindeer go to higher grounds
  • fruit bats live in the congo, their wings are one meter across
  • 10 million fruit bats fly hundreds of kilometers to a huge swamp with a large supply of mangos
  • the ice that the polar bears live and hunt is melting, causing many problems for the species
ANIMAL OF THE DAY #6
