Small alligators are not a real threat to humans and won't attack people under normal circumstances. Sometimes people think small alligators, smaller than 3 feet, will make a good pet. In fact, trying to capture an alligator is the most common way people get bitten by one.
The only place where both alligators and crocodiles live side by side is Southern Florida. Alligators live in freshwater places like ponds, marshes, wetlands, rivers, lakes, and swamps, as well as in brackish water. Alligators have really bad eyesight on land. They have a “nictitating membrane” to protect their eyes so that they can see underwater. Alligators hear with ears that are found behind their eyes and are really sensitive to vibrations. After mating has taken place, the female builds a nest of vegetation. The nest can measure seven to 10 feet wide and two to three feet high. Then, around near the end of June and early July, the female lays 35 to 50 eggs. Some females can lay up to 90 eggs. Ashleigh

For humans, (and possibly other animals) its hard to see in the murky waters of the deep, but sharks have excellent vision. Their night vision is better than a cat's or a wolf's and smell is 10,000 times better than a human's. Sharks can detect electrical impulses, including another animal's beating heart.
Mostly all sharks are carnivores, or meat eaters. This means they like fish and large sea mammals, like dolphins and seals. They also feed on turtles, seagulls, and sometimes, even other sharks! Sharks can range in size from tiny to as big as a bus. The spined pygmy shark grows only 7 inches long, while the whale shark can reach over 50 feet long. Most sharks are about the same size as a human, or slightly larger. Also known as the sleeper shark for its sluggish pace, the Greenland shark is one of the slowest swimming shark in the world. They average a cruising speed of 0.3 m/s (0.76 mph), but are capable of short bursts of speed. Ashleigh This isn't the whole story... sorry if i messed up some parts. This was supossed to be Plot for Warrior Cats but i din't know what to say about that so i made it the story... The real book report will be out soon. Also sorry if i'm not posting as often, i have work that i sometimes struggle on.
The first book starts of BrambleClaw having a dream of StarClan. StarClan tells him and three other cats to go to FourTrees where he was to meet the other cats at the next full moon. SquirrelPaw saw him walk in the forest and followed him to FourTrees and reveled herself explaining that she could not sleep and saw him walk into the forest. She promised him to not tell anyone. When they all got there,another cat was with FeatherTail. She quickly explained it was her brother StormFur. They all talk about what to do. They aren't sure so they wait for another sign from StarClan. Soon enough, BramleClaw got another dream about him drowning in a salty river near pointy jagged rocks. He quickly woke up, snook down to river where all cats drank, and told the other cats (CrowPaw, TawnyPelt, and Feathertail) about the dream. They found out that the place was called: The Sun Down Place. They all talked about it and decided to go there and find out why StarClan had sent them there. Along the was they met another cat named Purdy who helped them find The Sun Down Place. Along the way they fought rats, which bit TawnyPelt, infecting her. They tried to to cure it with burdock root and continued along the way. Soon after two days they reached The Sun Down Place, said goodbye to Purdy and walked up the mountain finding a badger at the top. Usually, Badger attacked cats, but this one was sent by StarClan and told them that monsters (construction machines) were going to take over the forest and destroy the Clans. Before they left, they quickly napped. Before dawn, BrambleClaw awoke and found the Badger (Midnight) staring at the upcoming sun and said, this isn't the end of your adventurer, it has just begun. Ashleigh Most species of centipedes are reddish brown. Name centipede originates from Latin language and it means "hundred legs". Despite its name, most species of centipede possess less than hundred legs. They usually have 15 to 30 pairs of legs.
Centipede usually live outside, but the House Centipede you can find inside as well. Centipedes usually live outdoors in damp areas such as under leaves, stones, boards, tree bark, or in mulch around outdoor plantings. If they are around the foundation of the house, they may wander inside. House centipedes are known for their fast, erratic running style. They often dart out from under things suddenly and run in jerking zigzag patterns. Yeah, it's the worst. You'll probably find house centipedes in your basement, though they're also common in bathrooms and crawl spaces. The only good thing about House Centipede is they tend to lurk in the humid areas of homes looking for bugs, including cockroaches, termites, spiders, and silverfish.They're not aggressive towards humans, but may bite you if you provoke them. The larger the centipede the more painful their bite may be. All centipedes use venom to kill their prey. Centipede bites rarely cause health complications in humans, and aren't typically dangerous. Ashleigh First things first, i want to say sorry that there is no setting for warrior cats 1. We had to return it to the library, and i have now started the 3rd book of warrior cats but i'm doing the 2nd book so you will understand the story. Lets get into it! Oh and btw, the book did not give me any description of the Clans so sorry if it's all over the place.
ThunderClan Camp: Cats of ThunderClan feel safe in it. It has animals the cats hunt and eat and a river to drink from. Cats say that StarClan watches over all 4 Clans and that dead cats go up to StarClan. WindClan: This Clan is more out in the open then ThunderClan. There Clan is at the very edge of the woods and the cats of WindClan usually spot eagles and vultures flying in the sky and take cover, since the birds prey on the cats. If a bird comes close to a WindClan cat, it will quickly run away, since WindClan is the fastest Clan. RiverClan: Unlike the other Clans, cats of RiverClan don't hunt in the woods, they catch fish in the river. RiverClan is shaded by a thick layer of branches and leaves which give the RiveClan cats good protection from humans and animals. ShadowClan: Cats of ShadowClan are usally very good hunters at both day and night. Since the sun doesn't shine much on ShadowClan, it gives them the advantage to pounce on their prey when its not looking. Ashleigh Main characters: Brambleclaw, Squirrelpaw, Cinderpelt, Crowpaw, Firestar, Purdy, Tawnypelt, Stormfur, Feathertail, Leafpaw. Last time i did 5 cats, now for the 5 more.
Purdy is an elder tabby cat with yellow eyes and rusty mud-brown colored fur. He lives near upwalkers (humans) and is wiser then he looks. He doesn't mind being insulted if someone insults him or anything, Even though most of the time he eats cat food, he isn't a pet, he mostly wanders. Tawnypelt is a pale tortoiseshell with green eyes. Tawnypelt is Brambleclaw's brother and is the smartest of the group. There isn't much to say about Tawnypelt except she's from ShadowClan so i'm gonna skip to the next. Stormfur is a dark gray cat with amber eyes. He likes to stick near Feathertail and protect her. Like he is smart just like Tawnypelt. There isn't much to say about him ether so i'm gonna skip to the next. Feathertail is a light gray cat with blue eyes. She is the fastest of the group and likes to stick near Stormfur most of the time. She is always positive and happy! Leafpaw is a light brown tabby cat with amber eyes and white paws. She tries to stay positive and is smart and helps Cinderpelt take care of the elder cats. Ashleigh Main characters: Brambleclaw, Squirrelpaw, Cinderpelt, Crowpaw, Firestar, Purdy, Tawnypelt, Stormfur, Feathertail, Leafpaw.
Brambleclaw is a dark brown amber-eyed tabby cat who is a little domineering and likes to get angry when yelling with Crowpaw, but he can be nice. He isn't the smartest of the group, but it dosen't mean he's stupid, he can sometimes be smart. Squirrelpaw is a dark ginger green-eyed cat (the book doesn't tell me the type of cat) who is very adventurous and likes to wander, she is the bravest out of the group and is Firestar's daughter. (Firestar is Thunder Clan leader). Cinderpelt is a dark grey blue-eyed cat (the book doesn't tell me the type of cat). She is a medical cat and is usually curious but also happy. She usually stays in the den, taking care of elder cats, but does leave if she needs to hunt or get some plants that help sicknesses. Crowpaw is a dark smoky gray (almost black) blue-eyed cat. Crowpaw is very impatient and is mad mostly all the time. He is strong and fast, but is still 2nd place in speed, while him and Brambleclaw are mostly at a tie at strength. Firestar is a ginger colored cat with green eyes and with a flame colored pelt. He is the leader of Thunder Clan and is the strongest cat in Thunder Clan. Has to daughters, Squirrelpaw and Leafpaw.
