I rate this book 4 for children and it is very enjoyable.

Lake Whakamaru was awesome.My favourite activity was the archery. It was so much fun and I was so close to getting a bullseye. I was really disapponted when we could not do the marshmallow pit because thats what I was looking foward to most about camp.I really do wish that I could go again.

TJ and I went to Room 16 to meet our new buddy! We chose Tawhiri he was awesome! We spent some time getting to know each other then the teacher said that we could go outside to play on the middle school playground! It was so much fun but then Tawhiri had a accident and he hurt his knee. TJ and I helped him but then we had to go. It was very sad.

I did an inquiry on the Siberian Tiger and to show my understanding I did a video which you can see below.

During our endangered study we created a quiz in google docs.

We have been studying endangered animals so we have thought of sketching a monkey and here is my awsome art. We had to follow a step by step guide to draw the chimp.

Siberian Tiger

Tigers are actually really quite harmless just because they look scary does not mean you need to kill them.

Characteristics
Siberian tigers have light brown and black stripes on their body and underneath they have white along with black pads. Siberian tigers have at least 50 whiskers or less.

Habitat
The tigers habitat is Siberia, South Asia, Eastern Russia, China, dens, swamps, snow fields, lowlands, snow mountains and forests.

Diet
Tigers eat boar, deer, fish, peacock, buffalo, pigs, monkeys, goats and also tigers eat 35kg per hunt!

Behaviour
Tigers are excellent swimmers so that is why tigers like to be near water. Whenever they hunt it will most likely be successful because they have an advantage from size and they eat up to 9kg everyday. Tigers like to nap in the day and hunt at night. Also tigers attack from behind to give their prey a surprising attack. They do it so they can more time to attack and bite the neck. Tigers catch their prey from speed (50mph) sense and smell. Tigers tiptoe through the forest without making a sound. Also tigers main prey is wild boar.

Natural Predators
Tigers are solitary hunters. Tigers like to drag prey to a quiet place to feast on. Usually tigers jump from behind to give a surprising attack.

Humans threatening
Humans are threatening tigers because they are poaching for fur. Also the are a group of men called rangers and if they see poachers they will shoot them.

Climate
Tigers like to live in moist damp areas where there is a cold harsh environment. Also tigers live in cold land like snowfields and snow mountains.

Dangers when bred in captivity.
The dangers in captivity are probably human diseases and injuries from other tigers in the same enclosures.

Classification and Species
The tigers classification is carnivore and mammal. Also tigers scientific name is pathera tigris and whatever tiger it is it would have something on the end of it.

So just remember tigers are not bad so don’t just go shooting one. Take care of one.
