The Pacific Lamprey can be found throughout the Pacific Rim, from Japan to Mexico in coastal and fresh waters. This particular species of lamprey is ancient, with it being around for over 400 million years. Now, they are endangered, but the tribes of the Columbia Basin are working to protect them because of their important part in ecosystems. Pacific lamprey transport nutrients from ocean water to fresh water. They hatch from eggs and go through metamorphosis, and are parasitic.

They have thick patterned fur that helps them not only stay warm, but to blend in to their environments so they can catch their prey with ease. Unfortunately, there as few as 4,000 of these big cats left in the wild because of poaching, habitat loss, and climate change. Snow leopards favored prey are herbivores such as sheep and ibex.]]> 2018-05-28 17:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264077372 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264079365 2018-05-28 18:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264079365 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264079786 The basking shark is in the class Chondrichthyes whose habitat is in warm or temperate waters, and are the second biggest fish in the ocean. Despite their size, they do not harm humans, but only eat plankton. They are very distinct because of the massive gill slits that encircle their head. They also have a crescent moon-shaped tail, a pointed snout, and more teeth than any other shark on Earth.]]> 2018-05-28 18:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264079786 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264082791 2018-05-28 18:38:19 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264082791 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264082906 The leafy sea dragon is in the class Osteichthyes covered with gossamer, or leaf shaped appendages across their entire body, which help them blend in with seaweed and kelp. They live in the waters off of the South and East of Australia, and survive off of tiny crustaceans such as sea lice. Sadly, a lot of them have been taken to keep as pets, where they don't survive for a long time, but they are only listed as near threatened.]]> 2018-05-28 18:39:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264082906 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264084215 2018-05-28 18:49:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264084215 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264084378 Poison dart frogs are in the class Amphibia, and are considered to be one of the most toxic animals on Earth, causing us not to be fooled by their size of about a paperclip. They are covered in different vibrant colors depending on what regions they live in the world, which ward off predators. (They are mostly found in the tropical forests of Costa Rica to Brazil.) Most poison dart frogs aren't toxic, whereas some of them are lethal to the touch.]]> 2018-05-28 18:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264084378 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264087253 2018-05-28 19:14:26 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264087253 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264087335 The barn owl is in the class Aves, and is a medium sized owl that has long, rounded wings, a short tail, long legs, and a distinct round head with a heart shaped disk on it and beady black eyes. Barn owls are white in the face and belly with shades of brown covering the body. They nest in cavities, barns, and forest trees, but need a wide area of open grassland for hunting. These owls hunt by flying low while searching for rodents to eat.]]> 2018-05-28 19:15:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264087335 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264089857 2018-05-28 19:36:25 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264089857 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264089933 Leather-back sea turtles are the largest turtles on Earth, with them growing up to seven feet in length and weighing over 2,000 pounds. They are in the class Reptilia, and their roots trace back over 100 million years. Their flexible, almost rubbery shell is unique compared to the hard, bony shells of other turtles, giving them their name. They live in the tropic and temperate waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, but can also adapt to colder water. They take the longest migration of any sea turtle, where the females come ashore to lay their eggs, where only some will make it to sea after they hatch to go on to be adults.]]> 2018-05-28 19:36:55 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264089933 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093678 2018-05-28 20:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093678 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093912 2018-05-28 20:06:23 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093912 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093994 2018-05-28 20:07:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264093994 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094044 2018-05-28 20:07:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094044 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094086 2018-05-28 20:08:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094086 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094159 2018-05-28 20:08:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094159 rmagnasco22 https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094215 2018-05-28 20:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rmagnasco22/5y1r47gvo9pw/wish/264094215
