Constrictor
The Constrictor is a snake that kills its pray by strangling it. Its coils help to strangles it. The constrictor does not eat often but when it does eat it aims for a gazelle. This snake can also hang in trees and can reach up to 10 m long. The constrictor snake is not poisonous is if it bites you but it can eat you whole no problem. I hope you learned something new by reading about constrictors
P.S. I would upload a picture but they really creep me out

Komodo Dragon
Komodo Dragon
Vicious Predator
By: Ashley
Mr. Ferris
The Komodo dragon is a Carnivore. That means that it only eats meat. The Komodo dragon is also a predator. That not only means it just eats meat it also means it hunts and kills the meat it eats.
The Komodo dragon can eat its own wait. With larger animals like deer’s the Komodo dragon will slap them down with their strong tail and tear off meat as they hold on to the deer’s carcase. With animals like lambs the Komodo dragon with just eat whole (Bones and all).
If there is so an animal that is brave enough to kill and eat a Komodo dragon I would be very surprised. I am not positive but will all my research i could not find out what eats a Komodo dragon.
The Komodo dragon is in the same family as a lizard. The only difference is that the average male Komodo dragon is 3 meters long and weighs about 200 lbs. Their tails are as long as there body and they are no friendly to get up and personal with.
The Komodo dragon prefers to be in warm and dried out spaces. Some of the ecosystems you would find the Komodo dragon in are places like dry open grass ground, savannas and tropical woodland at low levels. For shelter they make holes with their huge claws and crawl into them for warmth.

Samuel Champlain’s
Diary

Ill Feeling Dec 25, 1635
I woke up this morning with an ill feeling inside. My head is fuzzy and my right arm is feeling num. Don`t believe I will be doing much exploring today.
Niagara Falls July 6, 1610
I witnessed today what I would think should be one of the wonders of the world. It is a huge water fall in the shape of a horse shoe. I found it on the border of New York State and Canada. It was a marvellous sight to look at for hours and hours.
Huron Indians October 1, 1609
I had befriended the Huron Indians last year and today I helped them fight the Iroquois in a battle. There were a number of issues from fur trading to stealing land. I had been a long hard fight and I am glad to see the day done and hoping to get a good night’s rest.
Lake Champlain April 25, 1609
Today I set out to explore the St. Lawrence River for the King of France. It was a dark and gloomy day out today and the wind was cool. As we charted unknown waters we came upon a lake that I named after myself (Lake Champlain). It is on the border of Northern New York state and Vermont. It was quite an adventurist and successful day.
Quebec January 15, 1608
I t was a cold bitter day today in Quebec. I believe this could be an excellent fur trading center. I have lead 32 colonists to this area to settle. If they can survive the harsh frosty winter in Quebec I am sure more settlers will come. I believe that I might have founded Canada’s first City (Quebec)
The Bay of Fundy May 31, 1604
Today it was a bright and sunny day and we returned to Canada. We sailed around and charted most of the coast of Nova Scotia to the Bay of Fundy. Then we sailed down the coast to Cape Code and Martha’s Vineyard (Massachusetts) and later to Rhode Island. We ended our night with a feast and the crew sat around and played numerous games.

Lillys First Dolly
Lilly’s First Dolly
Dreams Do come True
Dreams Do come True
Have you ever heard of a remarkable young girl name Lilly. Lilly is seven years old and has already fought cacner twice. She is a very strong little girl and believes she can do anything she sets her mind too. Lilly has some problems. Not only has she fought cancer twice but she has also never had her own doll.
One day Lilly was at home sitting on the couch when her mom came in and sat beside her. Lillys birthday was coming up and her mom asked her
what she wanted.
Lillys eyes opened whide and in a strong voice she said "I would like a shiny dolly with a pink dress please..."
The doll that Lilly wanted was really expensive and the batteries were not included.
Lillys mom didn`t know what to say except for "We will have to wait and see."
The next morning Lilly woke up to the sound of her brothers alarm clock across the hall. Then her mom walked into her room and told her she had to get ready for her doctors apointmate she had that day.
Lilly had nothing against going to the doctors. In fact she was excited to get the lolly pop at the end of the check up. They walked into the doctors office and signed in. They waited in the waiting room untill Lillys name was called.
Lilly walked into the doctors room to see a sad exspretion on the doctors face. Lilly new it couldn`t be good. Then he said he had some bad news so Lilly pluged her ears. Then the words came out.
"I`m so sorry, but you have been diagnosed with cancer again Lilly." said the doctor. Then the tears came pouring out.
When they got home all Lilly could do was cry. She coldn`t accept the fact that she had cancer again. She remembered how hard it was.
To go through it all again would be awful. She had grown her long blond beautiful hair out and for what? She had, had enough.
The next day Lilly had to go into the hospital for Kimo. As she layed asleep in the hospital bed her mom quietly came in and put the shiny doll with a pink dress down to lay there beside her.
