Some people put kiddy play pools filled with water in a shaded spot for their Bulldogs to lie in when the weather is warm and everyone is outside. They definitely are house dogs and should not live outdoors all of the time.<br><br>Mrs. DiPadova</div>]]></description>

It has large jaws with strong muscles, and together with its flat molars, it is able to crush bamboo leaves and stems. Its thick fur is creamy-white with big black patches on its shoulders, ears, and nose, with distinctive black patches around its eyes. An extension of its wrist bone, which serves as a thumb, enables them to grip bamboo stems.</p><p><br/></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://animalia.bio/giant-panda">https://animalia.bio/giant-panda</a></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Sea otters form groups known as pods or rafts when resting. Females avoid males except during mating. They are long-lived and usually remain for years in the same area. They spend most of their time in the sea but rest on land during stormy weather or when population density is high. When sleeping or resting, they float on their backs and wrap themselves up in kelp to stop drifting away. They eat, rest, and groom at the water's surface. They are able to dive down to at least 45 meters but prefer coastal waters less than 30 meters deep.</p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://animalia.bio/sea-otter">https://animalia.bio/sea-otter</a></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p> Sharks count on the element of surprise as they hunt. When they see a seal at the surface of the water, sharks will often position themselves underneath the seal. Using their tails as propellers, they swim upward at a fast sprint, burst out of the water in a leap called a breach, and fall back into the water with the seal in their mouths. They can smell a single drop of blood from up to a third of a mile (0.53 kilometers) away. Sharks don't chew their food; they rip off chunks of meat and swallow them whole. They can last a month or two without another big meal.<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/facts/great-white-shark">https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/facts/great-white-shark</a>          </p>]]></description>

Its skin is hairless and smooth, and is grayish blue, lighter on the underside, with a series of grooves on the throat. Its large tail is straight, splitting at the end into two rubbery flukes. Blue whales are part of the "baleen whales" group, having, instead of teeth, up to 395 hard, bristly baleen plates that descend from the upper jaw. These plates are used to filter seawater for food. They have two blow-holes that expel stale air and seawater out of the top of their heads when they come up to the surface to breathe.</p><p><br/></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://animalia.bio/blue-whale">https://animalia.bio/blue-whale</a></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Blue whales are generally solitary creatures that may spend some time in pairs and occasionally come together in casual groups to feed. They communicate with each other using a variety of sounds or songs, including squeaks, hums, and rumbles, mainly during the breeding season, which is in winter. The sounds Blue whales make are extremely loud, the loudest of any animal on the planet, and they have been recorded at higher than 180 decibels. They use their tails to perform deep dives, as by lifting their tail above the water's surface, they muster enough power to dive up to 200 meters straight down into the sea. Blue whales feed through lunge feeding; they swim toward krill at high speeds as they open their mouths up to 80°. While pursuing krill patches, Blue whales maximize their calorie intake by increasing the number of lunges while selecting the thickest patches. This provides them enough energy for everyday activities while storing additional energy necessary for migration and reproduction.</p><p><br></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://animalia.bio/blue-whale">https://animalia.bio/blue-whale</a></p>]]></description>

When active, they typically alternate between being underwater for a few minutes and coming up to the surface to breathe air for a few seconds. Green sea turtles are also known to sunbathe on land.</p>]]></description>

As they grow older, the turtles move to shallow waters along the coast, such as bays and lagoons, where they find sea grass to eat.</p>]]></description>

A female will dig out a nest with her flippers and lay a clutch of about 115 eggs. Then she’ll cover the eggs with sand and return to the sea. After about two months, the babies will use a special “egg tooth” to break their shells and hatch from their eggs.</p>]]></description>
