I believe a lion symbolizes Strength. I believe a lion has strength because they are one of the top predators. ]]> 2021-11-18 20:44:38 UTC https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1900536126 Drew B https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1901203033 Let me tell you about mice. Perhaps the most famous mouse of my generation is none other than Jerry from “Tom and Jerry.” In this animation, the mouse Jerry is constantly attacked by Tom who's is never successful. Jerry always teasing Tom. Even though he is much smaller and weaker than Tom. This kind of situation figures Jerry is smart and obnoxious. The reason I came to this thought is probably that the character of a mouse in the children’s movies such as “Stuart Little” and “Ratatouille” is clever. Of course, in real life, mice are not stupid animals. With its small body, it roams every corner, touching food, making holes in walls, and gnawing at electric lines. Even if you set a mousetrap to catch a mouse, it is not easily caught. Just like Tom in the animations, humans seem to suffer in real life. However, mice are not always hostile. Seeing that some people keep them as pets. Although I can't agree at all.]]> 2021-11-19 03:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1901203033 Amber https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1904974509 I chose an owl because I believe they symbolize wisdom. I believe owls are wise because they can see things all around them and are able to see at night when nothing else can, they see what others cannot.]]> 2021-11-22 01:06:26 UTC https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1904974509 Joelle https://padlet.com/gbayliss2_2/x715i23e5rqwgf87/wish/1909388016 I chose an Elephant because they are known to be exceptionally smart creatures. they have the largest brain of any land animal.

I chose the cat because it is the Scorpio spirit animal. Felines conserve energy by sleeping more than most animals hence the term ‘cat nap’. Cats are flexible in their routines, more active at night and can be very affectionate. They are independent, territorial and great hunters.
