The Honey Bee Wolf

In the United States today there is a great amount of cultural diversity, but unfortunately the predominant American culture causes other cultures to be overlooked causing difficulties for students of other cultures to succeed in the American school system. This is what happens in the story of the Indian Wind-Wolf as he begins going to kindergarten. For Wind-Wolf, this is his first time outside of the Indian culture and it is very difficult for him to be the only Indian boy in his classroom. It causes him to feel like an outcast. As educators, teachers have the responsibility to create an environment in the classroom that makes each student feel that they belong there. For Wind-Wolf, and any other students in a cultural minority, the typical classroom does not have these necessary qualities. There are a few ways Wind-Wolf 's teacher can create the classroom environment necessary for his success: working with his father to see what will be helpful for his learning experience, being culturally responsive, and incorporating his culture into the classroom.

Everyone has a secret life that they keep hidden from the rest of the world. Lies are told on a daily basis in order to keep these lives stashed in the dark. In The Secret Life of Bees, by Sue Monk Kidd, the bees are the ones that have the most secret life of all. They each have their own specific role to play deep within the hive. It's obvious that the author had meant for some of her characters to portray the roles that these buzzing insects have to dutifully fulfill every duty. Lily and Zach are the field bees, August is a nurse bee, and the Lady of Chains is the Queen bee.

One day, Lily and her younger sister Milly went to the carnival and on the way they passed by the zoo. This reminded Lily about how much Milly loved penguins.

1990). They are not needed for the winter months because they do not possess a stinger and are therefore no use to the worker bees after copulation with the queen.

In this essay I will be informing readers about the history of the wolf in the western part of the United States, the wolf’s status as an endangered species, and its effect on the ecosystem and what we as humans can do to manage it.

The Canadian wolf can look many different ways.They can grow anywhere from 2-3 feet tall. The Wolf has fur and claws. When you think of a wolf, you can compare it to a dog. The teeth are just like a dog’s teeth. The Wolf’s tail is just like the rest of it’s body, fluffy and soft. A wolf is most likely to have blue or brown eyes. A wolf has four short legs, but they can run fast. The male can weigh anywhere from 70 lbs- 200 lbs. The female weighs about 50 lbs- 100 lbs.

1. The wolf is a pack animal. What does it mean to be a pack animal?

Apis mellifera scutellata is cross between a European bee and an African bee, also known as the “Africanized Honey Bee”, or even the “Killer Bee.” It is very similar in appearance to a typical European bee, but is slightly smaller in size, though microscopically so. The differences between the European bee and the Africanized Honey Bee are exemplified primarily through behavior and biological patterns. Africanized Honey Bees are much more prolific than European bees, reproducing up to six times more yearly than European bees. The main difference between the Africanized Honey Bee and a European bee is that Africanized bees are far more aggressive than European bees, and are more protective of their nests. The willingness of Africanized bees to attack unprovoked has earned them the nickname “Killer Bees.”

The European honey bee (or western honey bee, Apis Mellifera) is a species of bee that naturally occurs in Europe, but has been introduced by humans to a variety of foreign ecosystems, including Australia and New Zealand. It is of ecological importance because of the effect that this introduced species has on the biodiversity of native wildlife, in particular native bees, hollow-nesting native birds and mammals, honeyeater birds and native flora.

There are three types of bees in a hive; namely, the queen, worker bees and drones. There is only one queen per hive and her role is to produce more bees (4). This is done by mating with the male bees. After mating, the queen can lay up to 2,000 eggs per day (4). Drones are male bees and their role is to mate with the queen. Drones spend a considerable amount of time inside the hive; in addition, during early winter

Before Europeans settled North America, Gray wolves inhabited areas from the southern swamps to the northern tundra, from coast to coast. The gray wolf is a native species here in the us, these wolfs can be easily identified by their tracks and physical features. Gray wolves are also known as timber wolfs, and are carnivorous animals. The species was likely extirpated from California in the 1920’s. The Gray wolf also known as the Timber wolf, will live/hunt and do everything in a pack, a wolfs territory may cover 20-80 square miles.

A honey bee colonies can have populations over 75,000. Bees don’t hibernate, they live off of the honey that they created and they won't freeze because all the worker bees are working so there’s enough heat. The average bee speed in only about 15 miles per hour. As many people know, bees are excellent pollinators. Using their short, hairy legs, bees are responsible for collecting and transporting more than 80 percent of the pollen needed by most fruits, legumes, and vegetable-seed

A bee is an insect that lives in every part of the world except the North and South Poles. Bees are one of the most useful of all insects. There are 20,000 species of bees in the world (154, B: Bees). Bees get their food from flowers through pollen and nectar. They collect tiny grains of pollen and nectar from flower blossoms. Sticky nectar gets attached to the tiny hairs that cover their bodies and is distributed when bees travel from flower collecting nectar (201, B: Bees). Bees make their honey from nectar and use both honey and pollen as food. When bees are collecting nectar for food, they spread pollen from flower to flower. The process of pollination allows plants to reproduce as well as feeds the bees. Bees have become completely dependent on flowers for food. Flowers, in turn, rely heavily on bees to

Throughout history, wolves have been common creatures featured in popular culture, folklore, and even religion. Here are some notable wolves and their roles.
