This is for my friend, Brooke who wanted to learn about Giant Pandas.
Did you know giant pandas live in the same forest as the red panda. Giant Pandas eat bamboo leaves for 12 hours every day. To eat those leaves they have very big flat molars. When Giant Pandas are born, they usually weigh between 3.5 and 7 ounces. When they are 2-4 years old, they are full grown and they can weigh about 175-280 pounds. That’s big!
Red Pandas are mammals that are endangered because their forests in China are being destroyed. They are close relatives of Racoons, Ringtailed Lemurs ,and regular Lemurs. Red Pandas fur color is black, red, white, and orange. I think they’re really, really cute!
Did you know that Puffer Fish are very interesting fish? Puffer Fish puff up when predators come swimming by looking for food. When other fish gobble them down it wont be a good snack to eat because it can still puff up after being swallowed. Plus, most have a toxic substance that makes them taste yucky.
Did you know that Leatherback Sea Turtles are the biggest turtles on earth? I learned a lot about them on National Geographic Kids.
This is from an email my aunt TT forwarded to me…
Not everybody gets to view this type of baby as Koalas are very private with their babies. Â I gather the Mother must have died in a possible road accident and they managed to save the babies. Â This is a fabulous feat for the wild life carer as they only feed on special milk. Â They usually are attached to a teat inside the Koalas pouch.
