Just kidding....

Mrs Tang is having writers block right now because it was a long day out in the field. We had a combination of cold wind, cold rain, muck, and mud...so I need to defrost and start thinking of posting more data!
So...

What is a vole?
How can you tell that there is a tick around?

send me you answers!

I will be waiting!

BUT, I do want you to think about WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 2009 is EARTH DAY !
What can you do or what will you do to help? You did promise to take the challenge at school.

You would find ticks on deer or other mammals in dry grassy places.-JB

Internet:

Ticks are small insects that attach themselves to mammals' skin in order to suck blood. At first, the tick is tiny, but when it becomes full of blood and is ready to detach itself, you will notice it.The most serious ailments caused by ticks in the U.S. are tick-bite fever and Lyme disease.

My idea of a tick: they might make some sort of noise that means they are ready to jump on you

A vole is a small mouse-like mammal that lives in deserts or cold places like Nova Scotia and coniferous forests...and i did not copy this from the internet.

I think a vole is like a gopher and a rat mixed together. What do voles eat to survive?

Hello Mrs Tang! A vole is a ground burrowing mammal that is quite small in size. You can tell that there are ticks if mammals are scrathing themselves. How moist is it?-RA
