It receives about 19 hours of sunlight to hunt and feed. Its tightly packed feathers protect it from the bone chilling 7 degrees celcius. It has no problem drinking water as it usually lives near a pond or river.Its diet mainly consists of fish which includes salmon, herring,shad and catfish. As it is at the top of the food chain, It does not have many animals to worry about]]> 2017-05-23 12:17:51 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173364047 Ansh https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173364624 The bald eagle has many weapons it uses to catch prey. Its razor sharp talons are used to penetrate prey flesh and kill it. Its sharp beak is used to tear and rip recently killed prey. Excellent eyesight an hearing help it detect prey. It has powerful wings for far distance flights. its tail helps to stabilise the bird when it flies at fast speeds.]]> 2017-05-23 12:20:34 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173364624 Ansh https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173371550 The bald eagle does not chew.

small ears- reduces heat losses
strong legs for swimming and running -helps them catch their prey
thick layer of blubber - fat for insulation and a store of energy
thick layer of white fur |-insulation against the cold, and for camouflage]]> 2017-05-24 00:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173515363 Jeremy https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173515422 Great whites are found mostly along the coasts of Australia, South Africa, California and the northeastern United States. They are also found in fewer numbers around the Azores, Brazil, the Caribbean, northwestern Africa, eastern Africa, the Seychelles, Madagascar, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, northern Australia, New Caledonia, the Philippines and Hawaii. They prefer warm, salty, temperate coastal seas.]]> 2017-05-24 00:31:36 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173515422 Anisha https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173515649 Polar bears spend most of their lives alone, since there is very little life in Tundra and competition for food is great. Polar bears exhibit some aggression to protect their cubs or food and to compete for females. The mode of communication is typically vocalization and sign language.Their cubs are born in den to be protected from harsh weather.]]> 2017-05-24 00:33:19 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173515649 Jeremy https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173516110  The great white shark is warm-blooded.Their diet consists of small-toothed whales, sea lions, seals, sea turtles and carrion ( dead animals).

To survive, great white sharks have evolved several behavioral adaptations, including flexible activity patterns, migratory habits and social hierarchies. However, great white sharks are also intelligent hunters, and their most important adaptation is their use of different strategies for different prey. Great whites are not commonly kept in captivity; so many aspects of their behavior remain unknown, as it is difficult to study them in the wild.

Another structural adaptations that the great white has is their electroreceptors that find one of their greatest prey the stingray or other animals that give off an electric charge that flows through the water. One last structural adaptation is their  lateral line. The lateral line helps the great white shark because it can sense any creature in the sea that is struggling and/or bleeding. It also helps the great white because they can know where predators and prey are to hunt them or hind from the  predator such as the orca whale aka the Killer Whale.]]> 2017-05-24 00:50:55 UTC https://padlet.com/6Integrity2019/group8/wish/173517757
