Happy Tree Friends

When I imagined death I didn’t think he would be so cute. I thought death would be quick and painless. I always figured I would fall asleep one night and not wake up. I did not expect death to be so polite, or easy going. He had showed up at my doorstep yesterday, introduced himself while vigorously shaking my hand (and apparently his middle name is William). He took off his shoes, a pair of biker boots with red spikes scattered about, and then promptly threw himself down on my couch. Instead…

Adults aren 't the only ones who are affected by poverty. Children are affected in ways that aren 't seen by everyone. Every day a child goes to school they have to live with the fact that their family is struggling. Children are smarter than what adults think and they know when they are different than the majority of their classmates. From the clothes they wear to the food they eat, children know. Most children who have lived in poverty their whole life know no different, the ones who came from…

One fall day, on a cool, crisp morning it was quiet enough to hear an acorn fall from the trees, making a soft plunk plunk sound on a nearby leaf. My family and I journeyed out into the deep muddy woods that was sparkling from the way the sun was hitting the fresh dew. The sun was reflecting off our Ranger just right to make it look a sparkly, vibrant shade of red. We were driving on bumpy, muddy trails to check the trail cameras, which were hanging on the trees with a strap and a bright…

Deforestation is Linked to Tiger’s Heading Towards Extinction We have all heard about the beauty of a rain forest and the majestic animals that hide in the shadows, perched in monstrous trees are chirping colorful birds, while basking in the sunlight. The rain forest holds many homes to beautiful and almost forgotten animals such as Tiger’s who are on a brink of extinction. Also, the beautiful trees are producing clean air for everything to live healthier because they are part of carbon…

I took a step. Beams of light blinded my eyes as the dense foliage above me turned into ochre as they descended from the autumnal boughs of the sycamore tree. The trees aligned themselves in front of me and began to undress themselves as their leaves pirouetted gracefully towards the ground. The gentle wind fanned my skin as it rushed to hug my legs, acting like a magnet to the hairs of my face. The dewy smell of yesterday’s rain embraced the grass; the leaves kissed the soles of my feet as a…

The Effects On Deforestation On People In South America Deforestation in South America has lots of different effects on many different things like animals, people, and the world. It doesn’t just affect that specific place, if affects the world. Most fruit and cereals we buy come from tropical places that are being cut down and someday soon we are going to really feel the consequences and it’s going to hurt. The place that is currently the worst is South America. We get so many foods are…

This was repeated for soil, rock, tree, False Brome, etc. for complete analysis. If this was a pull plot, False Brome was pulled within the quadrat and the surrounding area. If this was a pull plot, the steps for determining coverage of plants were repeated. At the corners of the quadrat, tree density was measured by finding the nearest sapling and tree in the direction of the quadrat corner. Using the DBH tape, diameter of the trees and saplings were recorded and tree species was recorded. This…

Biome Description/ Definition The Savanna is an amazing biome and different from other biomes. The Savanna is an extensive grassland. In the grassland you will find a lot of shrubs and remote trees. The savanna can be found between a desert biome and the tropical rain forest. The desert as we know does not receive a lot of water but on the contrary the tropical rain forest so as you might have guessed the Savanna does not have much rain. In the Savanna it is mostly warm and only has 2 seasons.…

She’d cashed in a favour from an old friend, to help her drag a tree branch, covered in leaves, to put over the hole. It wasn’t the best cover, if someone were to be suspicious of the fallen tree and moved it, her progress would’ve all been for nothing. But, luckily, it seemed nobody had spotted it. Or maybe they had, and just hadn’t bothered to check it out. Either way, the hole remained. Getting in was probably the easiest part of the whole operation. Pull the tree branch aside, crawl…
