Eerie Elephants - Information Report

In writing we have been writing information reports about endangered animals. We have a pretty long list but out of all of them I chose the Elephant because of its uniqueness. It was kinda hard to research enough to make 5 paragraphs (Introduction, Food, Habitat, Appearance and conclusion.) So anyway enough talking so heres my writing!!

Eerie Elephants

Introduction

Do you know that elephants can't jump?

Elephants are an amazing animal, unfortunately they are endangered. Sadly, people kill elephants for their tusks, even though it's illegal, people made one eyed decisions.

Habitat

Elephants are scattered around the regions of Asia and Africa in the savannas, grasslands and highlands. The elephants are like the janitors for savannas because they eat the shrubs so that new grass can grow. Do you know that elephants are important ecosystem engineers for forested habitats too? They make pathways for animals to pass through.

Appearance

Elephants are most known for they’re big ears, being the biggest ears of any living animal. Newborn elephants can weigh between about 90kgs to 121kgs, NEWBORNS! There are three species known of elephants and one of them is pretty unique. The Asian and Asian Bush Elephant, flick mud and dirt onto their back to keep them from not overheating but because the Africa Forest elephant’s ears are flatter than the others which helps them keep cool. Most people think all elephants are a light greyish colour but they usually aren't. They are supposedly dark grey but they also can be the same colour as the soil in their habitat is.

Food

Elephants are herbivores meaning they are like a vegetarian. Despite being one of the biggest animals on earth, they prefer small things like small plants, twigs, tree bark and roots. Do you also know that Elephants like cake? Adult Elephants can consume up to 300 pounds of food in a single day, if us humans ate that much food, we’d definitely gain a bit. An elephant eats by ripping the food out of the ground or picking it up by its trunk and bends its trunk and puts it in its mouth. Some people don't know this but the end of the elephant's trunk isn’t its mouth. 

Conclusion

These Elephants are very unique and are getting killed because of poachers. If you’d like to help the elephants you can not buy ivory because you’d encourage the shop to make more clothes or accessories out of it and maybe even sign up for an elephant helper website. I hope this report helped you learn something new!

🥣Wonder Profile💧

🧊Hello! Im Ella-Pearl. Today I created my own Wonder Profile in reading! Wonder is a book about a boy named August. My birthday is in August so this is one of my favorite books! August was born in October. We are on page 76-77 and chapter The Bloody Scream. I found it challenging to find the right face shape or the right hair. After you've finished your profile, you get to choose your own preset. My preset was 'Even if you don't win, listen to the small voice inside of you that says your always a winner.' -Josh. If you don't like your first preset, you can get a new one by pressing the button you got your first preset on. Although my profile does look like me AT ALL, Im still proud of it! Here's the Link. I'd love to see your profiles!  Comment if you find something wrong with the link or website and i'll try my best to reply as fast as I can! Love you guys! (Not in a weird way)🧊
