I live, near the woods with all kinds of animals like the deer, coyote, fox, black-bear, moose and other animals. I am going to talk about the deer. Deer live up to 10 years, their foot prints are easy to see. Deer only have 2 hoofs that how you know their track hoofs can get up to 4.5 cm long. They can jump up to 4.5 meters long.

Where I live the Appalachian chian of the mountons are tall. We have a forest in the back of our school, we recognized the pine tree the most because of the color of the needles and also because in the winter the needles don't fall off.

The animal that we want to talk about is the mink. One day Isaballe was in our class and she looked out the window and she saw one everyone got up and looked and then it went away then we went to go look at the new tracks and they were really fresh.

Hi,

Our names are Spencer and Nick.

We live in the Appalachian corridor.

We're looking for the amazing cougar.

Did you know that fully grown cougars reach the height of 7 to 8 feet on 2 legs.

They can also jump 20 feet in the air!

Cougars are walkers, that means that they do a left, right, left, right patterns.

Cougars are very rare to see, so if you do write on are blog!

Thanks!

We live in the apalation chain there are a lot of trees around. Some of the mountains around us are Owl's head, Sutton and Bromont. Some of the tree's are birch,oak and maple.

We are going to chose the deer for our animal. they arevery fast and nervous animals they are fast. Also they are hunted for their meat. If you try to run  and then jump for them they will run and they have fat reflexes 

The Fisher Cat.

Where I live the closest mountains are Mont Sutton and Bromont, I like thick forests, I am a good hunter in the trees and you will not find me very close to the water. These are the trees that are in my forest: birch, cedar, pine, and maple.

I am a Fisher Cat and I've got some things about me thet might blow you away.

I can climb head first down a tree and have no problem getting down, unlike those ordinary cats that just get stuck in the tree and you have to climb up to get them down. And the reason I could do that is thanks to my incredibly sharp claws, just look at them.

I am also the only predator of the porcupine thanks once more to my claws.

I also can turn my hind legs 180 degrees, isn't that cool?

And if you live in a thick forest and your cat disappears you think that is the strike of a Fisher Cat.

Dear readers,

We lve in the Appalachian cahin of mountains, which includes:

Mont Glen, Owls Head, Round Top, Mont Orford, The Pinnacle, Mont Sutton and Mont Foster. We also live in the biggest natrual reserve in South Qébec.

Some trees are: Maple, Oak, Red Oak, Pine, Blue Birch and White Birch.

This is the home of the Back Bear. The Black Bear is an Omnivore, and it has big paws to catch and kill it's prey.  Also it's pads are harder than other animals, because the Black Bear needs pads so there paws will not get hurt, because it weighs to much.

The Black Bear is an Omnivore which means they eat live prey and meat.  Hit diet also includes vegetation like, berries, leaves  and other plants. A mother bear will attck you if you go near it's baby. The baby will be like a kitten but when you go near it the mama bear will go all Homer Simpson on you.

Animal: Fisher

Live: We live in the Appalachian chain. We recognize the sugar maple and the white pine. The animals we see are deer different kinds of birds, and animals related to the rodent family like the fisher cat and the mink. Rarely we see a coyote or a wild cat.

Info: The fisher is the only animal that is agile enough to hunt porcupines. The menu for an adult fisher is one snowshoe hare or two squirrels sixty mice and one porcupine. The adult fisher will get some quills in its neck , head and chest while hunting a porcupine. The fisher is also a great cliber. The fisher roams the forest day and night in all seasons.

We live in an Appalachian range with mountains like Bromont, Owls Head, Glen and Sutton we also have wildlife like Deer, Coyote, Ducks and Racoons. Our favourite animal is the deer because they are nice and they are to hunt and to eat. The deer can run really fast and can jump up to 4.5 meters long. Another of our favourite mammal is the Coyote because they also run really fast and look like dogs. They are in the dog family. The White-Taled Deer's nickname is

'flagtail' because when it run's, it's tail sticks up and you can see it from far away. One time I saw six White-Taled Deer in one day and when it was running it's tail was sticking up.

We live in the Appalachian corridor. There are many different kinds of trees and plants such as oak, birch, maple, evergreen, and apple. For animals there are deer, minx, raccoon and fishers. We live near Mount Echo and Brome. But there's also Round Top, Owls head, Pinnacle, Orford, Jay Peak, and Foster. We have lots of plants and animals unlike the city. One specific animal that lives here and NOT in the city is the Red Fox. The Red Fox is, well, red. A Fox has a pointed snout and a bushy tail. A Fox is always alert and ready to hunt. A Fox does not hunt with friends. It prefers to be alone. Fox are slightly smaller than a regular pet dog. A fox is a very sneaky animal in order to catch and kill prey. They love wild birds, chickens, reptiles, fish, and various small animals. A fox is usually 15-35 inches in height and their average weight is 12-15 pounds. The fox tail is always tipped with white and the legs, feet, and tips of the ears are always black. The Red Fox lives in North America and one place to be specific is the Appalachian corridor also known as our backyard.

I have lots of trees in west Bolton most of them are maple trees. We saw coyote

and partridge tracks. They were on a hill. There are lots of hills and birch trees

too. Now back to the coyote. We have observed that coyotes are walkers and runners .They also have sharp but small claws and have four toes. most coyotes hunt alone they also eat rats,mice,rabbit,wild fruits,insects and birds. Coyotes only have one baby a year coyotes can have babies when they are ten months old.
