The Butterfly Rainforest Research Paper

The monarch butterfly, as known as Danaus plexippus, is often called the milkweed butterfly because its larvae eat the milkweed plant. They are also sometimes called "royalty butterflies" because their family name comes from the daughter of Danaus, ruler of Argos. There are many other interesting facts about this butterfly including its anatomy and life cycle, where the butterfly lies on the food chain, the migration from Canada to Mexico, why the butterfly is being threatened, and lastly, what is being done to help the butterfly.

The beautiful rare Daintree Rainforest land stretches out into a dense rainforest, that lays on lowland mountain ranges. With “fast flowing streams, waterfalls, and gorges” that twist and turn between the mountains that lead to the white sandy beaches that collide into the Coral Sea (“About the Daintree Rainforest”). The closely spaced trees cover (“Tropical Rainforest Biome”) the colorful flowers and plants throughout the rainforest (“About the Daintree Rainforest”). The Daintree Rainforest is a tropical rainforest biome that is “located on the northeast of Queensland, Australia” (“About the Daintree Rainforest”). Logging has been a problem to the one hundred and thirty-five million year old rainforest because they see the Daintree Rainforest

My team has discovered a new population of sloths in the Amazon Rainforest. The team has a job of figuring out three things regarding these sloths. The team has to determine if the new population is evolving, how it is related to other sloth populations near it, and if it is a different species than the other sloth populations.

The setting in the two novels plays important roles in both of the plots. In The Butterfly Revolution, the setting shifts in the very beginning of the story. In the journal Winston Weyn receives for his birthday from his uncle, he describes his home. Winston also shares with us that from his parents he half-heartedly accepted a trip to High Pines for the summer. Winston was not like most boys, and instead of playing baseball and doing things that most boys do, he read books. This bothered his brother Howard, which just encouraged Winston to read more and more. His father and mother, both concerned, had multiple talks with Winston but none of these talks resulted in anything. “And here I am, sitting on a thin and kind of smelly narrow mattress on my bunk in a cabin at High Pines” (22). He went from the comfort of his own bed to the smelly mattress of High Pines. The central conflict of the story begins at the camp. This shift of setting allows the real story to begin. Later in the novel, the setting shifts again. Some of the boys begin to venture off into the girls camp, or Low Pines. After the revolution has begun, they take over the girl camp, also. If the girls’ camp was not involved, two out of the three deaths would have been prevented. John Mason would not have died under the

The location of the Daintree Rainforest is in one of the wettest climates of Australia

For my observation, I choose to visit the area of the Stanislaus National Forrest. I had wanted to see the changes over the few years from the rim fire. I headed up to the 120 towards Groveland and got as far as I could, but the road was closed. I stop for a moment to observe the area, and decided that I would take a different route to the area where I could look down below to see if I can catch anything with the Rim Fire affects.

If you're lucky enough to travel anywhere where would you go? I chose to go to a warm climate where there is tall palm trees, it's densely populated and it's one of the biggest states in the united states this place is California, that was the best choice I have made so far this year.

The summary of Leopold’s work is what should be admired, as Leopold was a pioneer in changing the American view of the people’s place in nature. One of my favorite quotes in the book was: “the modern dogma is comfort at any cost”, which is saying that to get comfort, you have to spend money. Another favorite quote was: “is education possibly a process of trading awareness for things of lesser worth?” What I got out of this is that it’s saying the true definition of education and what school is. Leopold’s views on the world are very good and they show how much we don’t think about the world and the land ethic. Also, it shows how all we care about is comfort and convenience. His view of being out with nature is also good because our world is filled with technology and many people forget about nature and how important it is to us. The through-line that I think defines him is Earth Keeper, his views of how technology and people hurt nature and how we need to protect it. Nature is such a big part of our lives and we need to take care of the earth.

10: The life cycle of the organism: The life cycle of the Kamehameha butterfly is the females lay their eggs on the mamaki leaves. After it becomes a caterpillar it feeds on the mamaki leaves before pupating and transforming into a butterfly.

It all started when I decided to go to the rainforest to explore new animal species. My helicopter had a random malfunction and fell into into the middle of nowhere, leaving me stranded in the middle of the rainforest. My only supplies that I could find was a single flare shot, emergency food rations and some rope. My first concern is finding water. I grabbed my supplies and started heading down a trail of mud and flattened grass. After about an hour of walking the sun started to set. I noticed a large tree that had huge wide leafs. I could use these leaves and sticks to form a temporary place to sleep. I started to gather up sticks to shape sort of a tipi. Then I laid the large leaves on the top and sides, and put one inside the fort to lay

Based on the decline of the Karner blue across its historic range, it was listed as endangered in 1992. Since listing, two populations have been extirpated and are being reintroduced to Concord, New Hampshire, and West Gary, Indiana. A third population is being reintroduced to Ohio. The threat of the Karner blue butterfly extinction exists primarily from the loss of critical habitat caused by landscape fragmentation, natural succession and concomitant suppression of the natural disturbance regime (Smallidge 1996; Clough 1992).

Monarch butterflies, whose population has been declining over the years, find themselves faced with a set of new threats.

Angelic Butterfly I started my quest to find heaven/ purgatory I desired to find sanctuary I wanted to be free from the sins of the world Little did I know the only way to purgatory/heaven is to walk through hell I entered the gates of hell into the unknown abyss As I walked through hell, I traveled through each layer Of sin. I was afraid, yet I knew I was not alone I felt a presence with me As I went deeper into hell, I felt the heat of the flames get hotter against my skin I saw others engulfed in the flame yet the fire did not consume me As I walked further into the abyss the sins and torment was beyond description; chilling I reached the very bottom of hell, and there stood Satan Stillness

The birds of paradise are a group of birds that are found in the tropical rainforests of south east Asia, mainly in the jungles of Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and parts of eastern Australia. Birds of paradise are famous for their beautiful feathers of the male, which they uses to attract the attention of female birds of paradise. The diet of the birds-of-paradise is dominated by fruit and arthropods, although small amounts of nectar and small vertebrates may also be taken. Even the birds-of-paradise that are primarily insect eaters will still take large amounts of fruit; and the family is overall an important seed disperser for the forests of New Guinea, as they do not digest the
