What I found to be interesting about this page was all the facts about dogs and cats on there. The thing that was new to me was, the cats whiskers can detect movements that are 2,000 times smaller than the width of the human hair. Also that dogs have around 100 facial expressions and the pitbulls and bulldogs expressions get interpretted the wrong way by other dogs which may cause them to fight. I would recommend this site to my classmates that are interesting in learning some interesting things about dogs and cats. The sources are sited pretty well on this page. My question for this topic is, what are some more interesting things about cats, dogs, and other animals that some people may want to know?

What I found interesting about this site is that scientists think that they have caught the "chupacabra" in Texas. I didn't know it existed and also what they found looks like a dog corpse, not a mysterical creature. I would recommend this site to a classmate if they seen this on the news and wanted to know a little more about it. The sources are sited okay on this page. My question on this topic is, what exactly is this creature they found, dog or chupacabra?

What I found interesting about this site and what was new to me is they found something on Mars that might be able to show if and when there was life on Mars. I would recommend this site to a classmate who is interested in if there was life on Mars at one point and who likes astronomy. The sources are sited really well on this site. My question on this topic is, from what they now know about Mars, was there life at one point on that planet?
