Animal Reports

For writing we have been learning how to write reports. We each chose an animal and had to use the information we got about them to write a report. Here is some of the reports we created.


Red fox

Red fox are the most spread out animals in the world.

They have great sense smell they can smell up to 3 kilometers away from them.

Red fox live in family groups sharing joint territory.
Red fox use there urine to mark there territory.
Also the red fox uses there urine again marking empty catch sites as reminders.

Red fox are social animals whose groups are lead by mated pairs which monopolizes breeding.

I think red fox are interesting animals and I think we should have a couple in New Zealand.

Learning about foxes 

The gray fox is a solitary hunter and is largely omnivorous.

A fox is a member of any of 27 species of small omnivorous canids.

Fox- foxes are nearly always extremely wary of humans.

WARNING don't keep them for pets.

Wow-wow-wow the well- known vulpine noise is a sort 

of barking that spans three to five syllables.

Other physical characteristics vary according to their habitat.

For example the Desert fox has large ears and short fur whereas the 

Arctic fox has small ears and thick insulating fur.

Gray fox- standing about 12-16 inches at the shoulders 

Weighing about 16 pounds.

The gray fox's ability to climb trees is shared only with

the Asian raccoon dog among Canids.

The gray fox has a gray back tawny sides,neck and legs 

a white belly, and a black stripe along its back and tail.

Whats the same about them 

They are both dangerous

they are both in the Canids pack

I really like foxes they are really cute and dangerous.

Coyote Report

My report is about coyotes. Coyotes shed once a year and begin to shed in May with small hair loss. Coyotes mostly grow up to 76-86 cm in length not including the tail.

Babies

Sadly, some puppies will not live their adulthood. Did you know that a female Coyote can have up to 1-19 pups!

Diet

Coyotes are carnivores, they mostly eat mammalian animals, it depends on the season though. Did you know that coyotes prefer to eat fresh meat.

Personal Thoughts

I think coyotes are a interesting animal because there very unique and different to wolves.

The Jaguar

The jaguar’s status is endangered.

The Jaguar only eats meat, which means it’s classified as a carnivore. The Jaguar eats up to 85 species of animals. A Jaguar’s bite can pierce a turtles shell.

Now, lets get into its breeding system. Females can have up to 4 cubs each time. They are born blind and can see after 2 weeks.

Size/weight talk now. The Jaguar measures 188 cm long and 190kg. (females are smaller: 114kg, 76cm).

Even though the Jaguar is one of the most majestic and mysterious animals in nature, we should not hunt such an amazing creature.
