Badger

It was spring break 2015 and my family decided we were going to take our first long road trip! We knew we had to drive a total of almost 17 hours so we made the decision to get up in the middle of the night to start our trip. We were on the road at 3:30am to get through Chicago without any traffic. It was dark and cold as we started out. We breezed through the windy city and headed to Indiana. By now the sun was starting to rise and we were all waking up. The ride so far had been very…

Toad's eclectic , selecting elements from various sources("Eclectic") , personality leads to him having expensive hobbies for short times before moving on to another.

furry white head. A badger. More specifically, a badger on a black and yellow coat of arms. This was my destiny according to the creator of the Harry Potter Universe, J.K Rowling after I took the House quiz on Pottermore. I was a just, loyal, patient, and “unafraid of toil” Hufflepuff. Yes, Hufflepuff, the house that no one cares about. I imagined myself as the brave and courageous lion of Gryffindor or the sly and cunning snake of Slytherin, not some badger. What even is a badger? I rebuked…

members of a class need to stay together. When Toad goes to jail, the wild wood animals run rampant in his home. It is not until Toad returns that the upper class can rally together and remove the Wild wood animals. If the upper class (Mole, Rat, Otter, Badger, Mole, and Toad) does not stay together completely, then the lower class will seep into their society and destroy everything they view…

Within living organisms, the main objective for most seems to be survival, but there are many ways to achieve this. While some animals may choose to work alone, other, cleverer animals, have decided to work together as teams instead of individuals. Through this method, many new opportunities are opened for these animals that were not opened before. New types of hunting and gathering styles are now possible that would be dangerous or impossible for single individuals. Faster methods of…

“Time to get up!” my mom shouted. I sat up and yelled back,”why so early?” She was saying “we need to leave in 45 minutes.” I totally forgot that we were going to the badger game. Therefor I leaped out of my bed and ran to my closet, open it really quick and grabbed some clothes and my badger sweatshirt. I threw it over my head and ran upstairs. When I made it upstairs my mom was putting stuff in the car. My sister was complaining that she couldn’t find her Halloween bucket. My sister Lilly that…

been out hunting a few times before, but we hadn't gotten anything yet. One day we were out all day and were just coming home. We came home a bit earlier that day so it was still light outside. As we were driving home, Brad said,” Look there’s a badger!¨ He has super good eyes and he spotted it as we drove by so nobody had seen it except him. We flipped a U and pulled over on the side of the road. It was sitting in his hole with just his shoulders and head sticking out, about 20 yards off the…

One of the most successful policy was the Agriculture Adjustment Act (AAA) in 1933. They had to act quickly and gave the farmers a choice to control their crops production so they can maintain crops prices with the reinforcement by county agents (Badger & Hollinger). By compensating farmers, it balanced the production and price so when a farmer had trouble the government will pay for the bill. This initially cycles the jobs. The government made it up to give farmers money so people would stay…

I agree with that quote because as I said in the first paragraph, most stories have the same problem or cycle but it’s told in a different way. An example is like in, “The Helpful Badger,” the cycle is showing life because the Badgers help the humans by protecting them and the humans help the Badgers by feeding them, they are helping each other and kind of saving their lives. In, “In the Windowsill,” the cycle is also life because the flowers grow and die, they also bloom in the morning…
