Papa Squirrel ¨Hunter, there are some baby squirrels who need a home, you want to take one in?¨ When I heard those words I knew that I couldn’t say no to them. I had always wanted to take in a wild animal, but my parents had always said no. Earlier in the year I could have taken in two baby raccoons, but my parents said, ¨Hell no!¨ So I knew I had to seize this opportunity and take in the squirrel. But to my unknowing, there were three baby squirrels and my friend was only going to take one.…

So, as he was jumping from one tree to another, he spied something down on the ground which excited his curiosity. "I must stop and see what that is,"…

Coevolution is the process by which two or more closely interacting species evolve in response to one another. Darwin is attributed with first hypothesizing coevolution in “On the Origin of Species” published in 1859; since that time, coevolution has become one of the cornerstones of modern evolutionary biology. The species that lead to the discovery of coevolution was the Angraecum Sesquipedale, a variety of orchid with a spur extending over 30cm long. When Darwin received a sample from…

Photosynthesis Project Photosynthesis is like a squirrel that saves acorns for winter. This squirrel’s name is Chester. Chester must use his skills and some of his energy to go out and save up acorns for winter, which will provide him with energy when he needs it. He must expend some energy now to gain more energy in the future. The acorns he saves will later be broken down (eaten), and used for energy. They are stored in his tree until the period of time that Chester needs them. Plants and…

However, I did come across the Squirrel Monkey and begin taking some notes on my phone and retype it on my computer. In the observation the Squirrel Monkeys are really active and tends to move in groups. Anyway I hypothesize that male Squirrel Monkey is the same size as the female Squirrel Monkey. The habitat the Squirrel Monkey was…

Lewis’ first experience with Joy, in relation to literature, was felt very early in his life. It is the second moment that he can recall ever experiencing this strange longing, and it is brought upon him by Beatrice Potter’s Squirrel Nutkin. This new and foreign feeling was so deep and unexpected, that it actually shocked and troubled young Lewis. Despite its strangeness, the boy would return to the book in hopes that he would feel it again. Lewis writes, “It was something…

A look of dispair as if it had given up hope of ever being happy again, a feeling that Mr. Farmer could relate to. It seemed to be looking for something. But what could the little squirrel be looking for Mr. Farmer wondered. Why did the little squirrel look so sad and so thin? After all, weren't squirrels supposed to be plump, cuddly,…
