Adaptation of Grey Wolves

They are one of the greatest hunters and they are the master of the forest. A canine looking beast,  fierce and intelligent. They are the biggest in the dog family, and they are of course… (drumroll please…)     Grey Wolves. 

ANIMAL PROFILE 

Grey wolves are the biggest member of the ‘dog family’. They are pack animals and always maintain a group stance. In the pack, there will be a ‘boss’, and the boss is called ‘alpha’, if anything happened, the alpha needs to go to the front, and if they need a new alpha the old alpha will fight who ever wants to be the next one to judge based on strength. And some times the alpha might be a female.

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE/ DIET/ DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENT 

They normally live in the forest and sometimes places that have snow, they eat rabbits, cows and animals similar to that. Because I know you know that wolves eats meat. ( ̄∇ ̄) Wolves have very thick fur coat to keep them warm. They also have long bushy tails to tell others their feelings like dogs does, if you likes dogs, you should already know that. They have long strong legs for them to walk a long distance. And when they are hunting, they can run very fast. When they are on the ice, if the ice cracked they can swim with their paws, and their fur coat can keep them warm enough. They sense of smell of and nose ability is excellent, they can smell things very well, like if they are lost, they can search for the smell of other wolves, and they can find their next prey to eat. They have super sharp claws for them to catch their prey and for eating. When they are chasing, they might use their claws to help them to scratch the animal so they might run slower. When they eat there will to prevent some type of problems that might hurt their teeth, they use their claws to help cut the meat or hold it tight.

PHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATION 

Some of you don’t know what ‘physiological adaptation’ means. It refers to in the inside of the animal and the need to survive. Which is the blood, their bones, how they are made and what do those things do…. there’s a lot of examples. First, they are warm blooded, which maintain a constant body temperature, typically above that of the surroundings. Their sense of smell is 100 times greater than humans. Wolves have eyes that are very sensitive to movement during night time, so they can be on alert of what is going on around them when ever they are resting, or working. Their eyes are also have a reflective retina, which improves their night vision. At last, they have a simple stomach for storing food quicker.

BEHAVIOURAL ADAPTATION 

Wolves always do weird things, like howling. They howl each night for a variety of reasons, like family bonding, hunting and communicating. Sometimes, it might be 2 wolves howling and maybe 10! Of course they eat a lot, so that they can be strong enough.

Year 5 Production Reflection

Have you ever had a production before? I know I have, and it was my school production. It was AMAZING!!! It was the best performance ever! We have been practicing for a long time. 

It is about Australian history and federation, and there are sooo many characters! We first start off with the tea ladies, they are very… how could I explain it… very funny actually, they gave out sandwiches and empty cups of tea. At the start I thought that the sandwiches are very good but until I had one… I felt like I’m going to throw up, because it was Vegemite sandwich… I know other people liked it but not me… (´・_・`) I actually felt sorry… but anyway. The most funny part is when they say ‘ would you like a cup of tea, love?’ I start to laugh at the back stage. And the commentators came and the show now started.  There are some brides coming and they represent the 6 colonies to make Australia. There are Western Australia, South Australia, Queensland, Victoria, Tasmania and New South Wales. When everyone is there Western Australia was late, because in  history Western Australia doesn’t want to be apart of Australia, and the queen at that stage is queen Victoria, Victoria is named after her. When she was trying to say some thing the commentators interrupt, and everyone went away.

 Here is Captain Cook, I am one of his soldiers, but anyways, at the start when he came out it was one of the funniest thing! And for us soldiers, we basically just copied what the first solider was saying, like when captain was trying to think what should we call for New South Wales. And our first idea is: Upside down land, topsy-turvy land, naval land and the funniest one is BOTTOM LAND! (^з^) It was sooo funny that everyone’s laughing. And the tea ladies came, Again.

Now we change into another cine, this is when I ran up steps and go back to where I was. We were sing while we came down steps with other people, they are convicts and just pretend that they are smelly…. does that sounds familiar…  when we stoped singing, the Governor came out. And he is separating the colonies and they found Tasmania. They disgust about each colony need a governor. In that stage, there should be no telephones but the Governor has one and they called England to tell them do not send any more convicts so they said from the other side that they will not send any more but they will take back the soldiers.

This scene is about traveling across Australia. First there’s a person who wants to travel from Western Australia to Sydney to visit his friend. But during the flight they needs to check his suitcase and he is very annoyed, and he thinks that there’s free flight between colonies. And Victoria is arguing about the apple is too expensive. But somebody found gold at Victoria, so everyone came for gold. And I was very angry about this scene because it is about go against the Chinese so….. yep I’m a Chinese~(´▽`) Well let’s go back into the track… so there was a guy called Edman Barton found  gold at Victoria, and everyone noticed, and they started to dig for gold, and that place became famous and people named it: Ballarat, we went there last term for camp, I’ve already been there 3 years ago. People from all over the world came for gold and 14 million people came from China came to find gold and they started to fight of course Australians win.

After that we set up a cricket game. This is for people to decide if Australia is going to be a 6 separate colonies or a great country! The Queen came again she is going to start off the game, but first, we need to have a coin-toss, there was soo many people watching and I am one of the ‘cricket player’ and we start off the game but, when somebody went up and said ‘we could give the vote to the women!’ And my friend is a woman but she dress up  as a man so did I. I hate that fake beard! It goes into your mouth! We think that it is not fair that women are not apart of the Federation but the commentators said that the Queen is apart of the federation and she is a woman. That is when I came out and throw the beard off and saying something…. just in that moment I throw it into some body’s face….(・_・; I am sorry for her…. anyway…  When we finished off we end it with the song… Which is fun I hope we can do this again!
