The Awe You See in Your Last Few Breaths

My Horse Has a Frog In Its Foot!!!??

      Alright everyone today this post will not be about just an answer or just a question it is about both. Well, all you really need to do now is read.

A horse's full hoof  (foot).

      Okay so on June 15th, 2016 I went horseback riding and I asked my horse riding teacher Hannah why do they call the inside of the horse's hoof (foot) the frog, my teacher is very smart and knows a lot about horses but even she did not know why! So Hannah asked me to research that for both of us. Again here I am doing a blog post from a farm.



        My guess to why the inside of the horse's foot is called the frog is because when you look at the frog the legs point out like the inside of the horse's foot. Now let's see if I got the answer right. The real answer is that the frog of the horse's foot is triangular such as a frogs body. A horses hoof is very delicate it is so delicate because if a rock gets stuck in the horse's hoof or small pebbles get stuck under the horseshoe this will cause the horse to fall, to trip, to be in A LOT of pain, etc.

        Now I will introduce people and things. Alright so the first horse that I rode was named Fairy Tale she was a beautiful well behaved horse I rode her for about 2 weeks and then she was sold, then after her, I had Stewart little who was huge. He was quite the naughty boy sometimes, and then after him, I rode MARSHMALLOW and I still ride him today. He is a wonderful horse. It is like he and I were meant for each other. I have been riding with Hannah for about 1 year now and I really like her. I have been riding Marshmallow for about 3 months and I just learned how to canter with him 4 weeks ago.

       I love horses so much and wish I could ride every single day!


       

I'm Going to Teach you a Lesson About Live Es-cargo

snail slime

  

snail eggs

 


       Hello everyone I'm back. This time with the snail! Some of you might say YUCK! But no these are actually very easy and not disgusting creatures.


 Something very exciting is happening I am getting pet snails so I needed to learn how to take care of these wonderful creatures.
          
       Mom's friend came across her 2 snail sort of climbing each other. She did not know if they were mating or playing. It appears that they were mating and she said that I can have the snail eggs! I am telling you a lot about what I learned about snails but I have only just started.

         Snails are not gross they are cool. There slime is how God created them just like us we move around on feet and legs they get around on slime. Even though they are slow unlike snakes God loves them.  The only thing other than that is just that you have to clean up the slime.
        
  A jar is a good starting home but use a large one, then add a little bit of dirt to the bottom. Drill holes in the top so that the snails can breath don't make them to large or else they with escape. Don't make it to small or they will not be able to breathe. Now you will be ready to put toys and your snails in.

      Snails eat cabbage leaves, radish, sometimes grass, clover is a favorite food turnip leaves, basil, and kitchen waste much more than that probably. The snail is a very unique creature and I think every creature has it's own thing that is cool. You bathe the snail by setting it in a shallow dish of warm water, then you pour more water over it and scrub it with a soft toothbrush.
 
Tip: Cuttle bone is good to put in the snail's container because it strengthen their shells. You can buy one from a pet store.

           Thank you so much for reading this post I hope you learned something and I wouldn't be surprised if one day you had some snails of you own. See you next time for the hyena documentary.

Why are Jalapeno Peppers so Spicy?

   

       This paragraph or two will answer your question  about why jalapeno peppers are spicy.

          They are spicy because of the capsaicin trapped inside the pepper. Capsaicin itself does not taste or smell like anything but they do produce spiciness. Another fascinating thing about these peppers is that casaicin is only found in the jalapeno pepper itself.

       Capaisin is made by the glands which are stored in the placenta of the  pepper the placenta is right under the stem. Alot of people take the placenta and the seeds out since they are so spicy. The placenta is the hottest part of the pepper because it holds the Capsaivin in it.

        Well this was not necessarily about animals but at-least you learned something about God's wonderful design on food. I hope that this little post answered your question about why jalapeno peppers are spicy. Thanks for joining me and see you next time.

The Piranha

   

  Hello everyone today I learned about the monsterquest team who taught us about the piranha who are a man eating fish! There is a picture of one to the right and that is the red belly Piranha but there are also many other species of them and they also come in different sizes.

            The Piranha can skin the bottom of a boat with their huge and sharp fish teeth they can also eat a goose within minutes if they work together!

      You are probably wondering where the piranha lives. Well keep reading and you will find out.        

The Piranha live in Texas southern Brazil and other tropical areas. The piranhas' usual home is in the warmer climates of south America. The Piranha's teeth look like the lower picture on the right!

      The monsterquest team set out chicken as bate for the Piranha. They waited a while and then came back. No sign of piranha on the chicken, but when check the nets they set out there are a lot of Piranha. They think that they need fresher bate. So they got some fresh chicken. When they came back there were a lot of rips but not from the piranha but by other fish. After that one of the team members went fishing to see some Piranha.You can watch the documentary here on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGIJ247JyuU

      The piranha eat big dead things or small live things. Piranhas have flesh eating teeth that can devour within minutes. Piranhas can travel in schools like the blue jacks but they also can travel on their own like the anglerfish.

        The fishermen were trying to find out if the piranha can live in the same lake all year round. The answer is yes. Of course they can if it is warm enough but if the winter is less than 55 degrees fahrenheit or 13 degrees celsius they will die. If the Piranha lives in lower than 57 degrees fahrenheit they will turn over on their side because it is so cold that they just cannot stand upright. When the Piranha lives in winter there is not much hunting or scavenging because it seems that where they live over the winter there is a lot of food available. 

   

   When you go into the water where they live you should always be careful because you never know if they are together in a school which is very bad because one is bad enough so be careful.

       Goodbye everyone  I hope that you will join me next time on my animal adventure which will be about tasmanian devil.

Crocs and Alligators

        Hi again everyone it is Rainy and today I will be talking a little bit about the differences about alligators and crocodiles and just about the great animal.

`
          Did you know that you can tell the difference of an alligator and  a crocodile is that a  alligator has a wider snout but a crocodile has a skinnier  v shaped  snout. Another difference is that a crocodile kind of shows a grin with their teeth. Crocodiles also tend to live in saltier body's of water and an alligator lives in more fresh water.
               Crocodile             Alligator

              I think that alligators and crocodiles are a great sign of God's creation. They are very dangerous but they are still an animal and they are still God's creation so i do not think that people should not like alligators and crocodiles even though they are scary and you might get hurt. I myself don't want to take the risk and go diving with dangerous animals but I like them when they are tamed and wild dangerous or not I just think that since I know of dangerous animals now It's a little scary going swimming in a river lake swamp or creek. If God likes things then I do not see why we don't like some of the animals he loves to.


                    Good bye everyone keep reading and you will probably find me stuck up in an animal adventure like usual.

On the Farm

        

Hello everyone today I will be talking about chickens, goats, and goldfish. A few days ago I went to our friends  house and she lives on a farm and so we got to see some of her animals.

 . At her house she had goldfish I learned that goldfish are very delicate creatures and so that day she decided it would be good to transfer the goldfish into her rain barrel. While she did it she just let the bucket sit there so that the goldfish would get used to the water temperature change. If you do dump them in they will get sick and them might die!


       At her house we got to see her two goats the baby's name was buddy and the mother's name was sunshine. I learned that the goats have their horns as a gift from God and they are used to fight and so if they did not have their horns their life would be harder.      

   

           At her house we also got two see her chickens I learned about the chickens that when they get sunburned there is a pinkish reddish spot on their skin and it is what a chicken's sunburn looks like. Also the chickens instead of having a water bath like we have they have a bath called a dust bath it is very simple they just have to roll around in a little dust pit and they will be clean again.

        At her house we got to play, we got to see her animals, and we even got to have lunch at her house and my sister and I helped.
I can hardly wait for the next time to go to her house.

     

       Hope to see you next time to read about my next exciting animal adventure. Thank you very much for reading my posts.
