Texas Horned Lizard
The Texas Horned Lizard has excellent self-defense.These lizard can change colors for camouflage and inflate themselves to look more threatening.But when times are desperate,as if a wolf was nearby, it releases a squirt of blood from its eye.The Texas Horned Lizard obviously lives in Texas and it eats harvester ants, beetles and isopods.

American Black Bear
Recently I went to Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains national park.It was great.Anyways I saw lots of Black Bears there.They are excellent tree climbers and are 5-6 feet(1.5 meters-1.8 meters)long.These bears eat lots of food including grasses, roots, berries, and insects. Sometimes even fish and other mammals.The best times to see these creatures are late evenings and early mornings.
Blue Jay
The Blue Jay of North America is a social, vocal bird.It looks big in this photo, but its real size 9.8 inches (25 centimeters)-11.8 inches (30 centimeters).The Blue Jay communicates by using a combination of calls, as well as face, crest and body movements.When a Blue Jay's crest is up it is aggressive.It is a omnivore by eating insects,nuts,seeds and grain.

Megalodon
There are lots of prehistoric creatures in the world.But none are quite amazing as Megalodon. This was a prehistoric nightmare that haunts the seas.They are a massive 60 feet.They ate anything they wanted.But they mostly ate whales and large fish.Looking at this picture,you see what I mean.But one question still remains. Do they still exist?I say they probably do.Many people saw sightings of it,and its a big ocean.Anything can live in it.
