Emperor Penguins

Hi! It's me Riley! I am writing about Emperor Penguins.

The Emperor Penguins are the biggest and heaviest penguins!  They are about as tall as a 7 year old kid!

They eat fish, krill, and squid.

The penguins huddle in the cold winter.

The mother penguin lays one egg.  The dad penguin keeps it warm until the egg hatches.  The mother goes out to hunt for food for 2 months.  She comes back and brings the food to the baby.  The mom and dad take turns hunting and taking care of the baby.

They live in Antarctica.  It is very cold there!

Emperor Penguins lose their soft feathers and grow waterproof feathers.

The last thing is penguins love to pop out of the water!

Bye!

Brown Bears

Hi! It's me Riley! I am writing about brown bears.

Do you know brown bears are called grizzly bears?

What do brown bears eat?

They eat grass, leaves, berries, nuts, fish, and other animals.  

They can eat 90 pounds of food per day in fall before hibernating.  

They hibernate in a den in the winter.  This is when the female brown bear gives birth to her babies.

Brown bears live in parts of North America, Europe, and Asia.

Bye!

Cheetahs

Hi my name is Riley.  I am 7 years old and my blog is about different animals.  This is my first animal I am writing about.  Cheetahs are my favorite animal!

Did you know that Cheetahs can run 60 to 70 miles per hour?  

They have spots for camouflage in the grass when they hunt. 

Cheetahs hunt animals like gazelles, antelopes, wildebeests, and zebras.

They live in Africa.

Cheetahs predators are lions, leopards, spotted hyenas, and humans.  It is easier for cheetah cubs to be hunted by these predators.

Cheetah cubs love to play with each other.  They wrestle and fight and jump on each other's backs.

Thanks for looking at my blog!  Bye!
