First Grade Class Pet Recommendation There are hundreds of class pets you can get! You can have fun with all of them, from a little insect to a rabbit! But, sometimes, it is hard to find which one you want. Some class pets that I prefer and suggest are caterpillars, turtles, and a rabbit! Not only are these pets fun and awesome, they are also easy to take care of! The first pet that I prescribe is a caterpillar. I know it sounds like a very weird class pet to have, but in some ways, it is very special. A caterpillar is a very easy animal to take care of. The kids will seem very interested in the caterpillar, and at the end, it turns into a butterfly! Different kinds of caterpillars/butterflies eat different kinds of plants. For example, the Monarch, a very picky eater, only eats milkweed plants. A caterpillar called “Wooly Bear” eats plants close to the ground like grass and clovers. That is really easy to get! Also, a caterpillar is really cheap and their home is too! All you need is a plastic box, that is 3 or 4 times bigger than …show more content…
This animal is very cuddly and soft and the most student-safe out of these three pets! They are very social, active, and playful! Rabbits are usually very tame, gentle, and quiet which is perfect for a class pet. This animal can also be trained, which can entertain the kids very well. This pet is not low maintenance, obviously. But, it is worth it! Rabbits eat fresh grass hay, fresh vegetables and greens. I know it sounds weird, but if you want to own rabbits, you need to groom their fur, bathe them, and also cut their nails shorter! As an extra, you can give your rabbit treats and safe toys! This pet needs a large cage with hiding areas and an optional bedding that ranges from newspaper to cut-up cardboard or straw. As you can tell, they aren’t as easy to take care of like caterpillars, but they are worth it because you can cuddle with them and physically love
The caterpillar begins by crawling it’s way through the world, rock bottom, going through it’s obstacles. Until finally it transforms into
Such Wildlife include 450 species of birds, 75 species of mammals, 56 species of reptiles, and 11 species of amphibians. These wildlife such as the Yucca moth are essential to the ecosystem of the park as the Yucca Moths will lay larvae within the seed pods of Yucca Blossoms. The Yucca seedpod contains over 100 seeds and the larvae only consume a few seeds however in the process the larvae pollinate the seed and allows the Yucca to bear fruit. However Yucca Moths are not the only pollinator within the park. European and domestic bees are large contributors to the park and vital pollinators and honey producers; they provide 80% of the pollination required by agricultural crops in the United States, and one-third of our diet comes from crops pollinated by honey

For example, the native hibiscus(Hibiscus tiliaceus) provide nectar for the Ulysses butterfly(Papilio ulysses). In exchange the Ulysses butterfly pollinate them as it goes around collecting nectar. The Ulysses butterfly and the native hibiscus’ relationship can also be describe as a mutualist relationship because both organisms are benefiting within this relationship. There are also predator/prey relationship within here. Some predator/prey relationship would be the cassowary eating reptiles, such as snakes, and crocodiles eatings platypuses.
The only animals they eat are spiders,and worms. They hardly ever eat those animals they eat mostly leaves on their diet.
In the novel In the Time of the Butterflies, Julia Alvarez uses the motif of a butterfly to compare the four sisters and depict their experiences.

At the conclusion of each of the three trials, the number of caterpillars that showed peck marks was tallied. The average of the three trials revealed that 0.67 out of 8 patterned caterpillars had been pecked and 2.67 out of 8 of the solid colored caterpillars showed signs of avian predation (Figure 1). The average rate of avian predation for the three trials was 8.3% for the patterned caterpillars and 33.3% for the solid colored caterpillars. The number of patterned caterpillars pecked was less than the number of solid colored caterpillars pecked for all three trials. It was observed that there were no adhesive issues, weather related damage, or interference from tree

They can also explore what material or substance allowed the caterpillar to create the cocoon. Some children might want to know why the caterpillar only eats a hole through the food and not the whole
