Answers 1. Snakes do have ears but the ears have no outside openings. Like fish, they hear mostly through vibrations. 2. It's a fact that the toadfish, found off our Atlantic coastline, really makes a noise like a pigeon. 3. Maybe this is just one of the reasons why the rhino is so unhappy but it's enough. Seems the animal is infested with parasites which consume about a gallon of its blood every twenty-four hours.
4. The seal uses its sensitive whiskers to poke around underwater cracks in ice to find fish.
5. It's a fact that the mole, a small underground animal, can move an object thirty -two times its own weight. 6. The weasel is the soundest sleeper. Frequently, a sleeping weasel can be grabbed by the head, feet or tail and swung around for quite a while before he wakes up. 7. Jim didn't have a magic bullet. All those different names are used for the same animal.

fun with cardboard
By Big Jon
You children who have enjoyed our songs and stories over the air will get a ldt of pleasure out of this game. For thousands of years, oriental children have made figures of people and animals out of seven pieces of cardboard or wood. It's a great challenge to your imagination and a lot of fun to boot. The figures show how you and mother can scissor the shapes from a square piece of cardboard or your father might cut them from a piece of wood. Here we have made one dog and one little boy kicking a ball.
