Seabiscuit reminds me of the African proverb “smooth seas do not make skillful sailors.” While the main characters–Red Pollard, Seabiscuit, Tom Smith, and Charles Howard–are known for their incredible gains, their losses cannot be forgotten. With each of casts’ misfortunes came their American dreams, even if they were not aware that they would need each other to achieve it. This dream would be lead by Seabiscuit. Seabiscuit was undersized, fairly gentle, and lethargic compared to other horses.…

SeaWorld offers an opportunity to watch and interact with animals that live in the ocean such as orcas, beluga whales, dolphins, turtles, fish, sharks, and otters. Although, in the eyes of many, SeaWorld is corrupt when it comes down to whales killing their trainers, orcas having a short life expectancy, and marine life being held captive. Killer whales have been the topic of discussion when it comes to whether or not they are violent. There have been some headlines about trainers getting killed by killer whales at SeaWorld.…
Seahorses main sources of food include small shrimp and plankton. For an average seahorse to survive, an adult must eat 30-50 times a day and a baby must eat up to 3,000 pieces of food a day because their digestive system passes food through so quickly. However, other animals besides seahorses eat plankton and shrimp as a food source. Therefore, the greater number of seahorses and other species in a population, the less amount of food each individual would receive would be less and less until the food source dwindles down to nothing. To allow for each animal—seahorse or other animal that eats shrimp or plankton—to collect enough food, the population of each must be distributed throughout different areas and populations of the ocean.…

Also in paragraph 3, it states" They can change colors to camouflage themselves. " I think that it is really cool that the author put this in there because not many animals can change colors just like sea horses do. Sea horses can protect themselves with their strong attack,…
The green sea turtle, also known as the Chelonia mydas, get their name from their colour of their body fat, which is green from the algae that they eat. A green sea turtle has a hefty carapace, which is also the most noticeable part of the animal (Green Sea Turtle - National Wildlife Federation, 2017).

For example, when sea otters sleep, they float on their backs wrapped in seaweed so they do not float away while sleeping (Canadian Wildlife Federation). Sea otters can reach a speed of about 0.9mph while swimming on the surface and about 5.6mph under water (seaworld). With sea otters being able to swim so well, sea otters can swim rapidly to get away from prey. In order to survive a sea otter life, the main thing for survival is eating. For sea otters to get food they swim or dive down about 66ft under water and can stay submerged for about 52-90 seconds…
