Cool corals
Splash! Eduardo Sorenson leaps from the boat.He and three other drivers slide under the icy waters off the coast of Chile.Cold seeps through his dive suit.Yet he goes deeper.At 35 meters(115feet) below the surface, his flashlight barely lights up the murky water.Does anything live here.Suddenly, he spots a flash of colour.He swam closer>Bright red corals sprout from rock walls.Tiny animals called coral polyps wave their rosy tentacle.feathery yellow sea pen corals sway gently.Why are these find s in Chile and Alaska so surprising?Scientists once thought corals mostly grow in warm, shallow water.The great barrier reef in australia ia a perfect example.There, sun sun lights up endless hills of pink, purple, and yellow corals.A wrinkly one looks just like a giant human brain!Now imagine the deep dark ocean.What do you see? If you're like many people, you may think, "Not muc"!"Well think again.Divers and submarines are exploring the oceans' deepest, darkest, and coldest spots.In many places. they're finding colourful corals.these discoveries keep changing what we know about corals.it turn out some corals can grow in waters as chilly as-1 degrees celsius (30 degrees Fahreheit).They can survive in the dark and deep waters!it turns out that more corals may grow in cold dark seas than in warm and tropical waters.

Practically every child in the world,at some point,has been enthused with dinosaursnd who can blame them after their discovery of dinosaurs.Actually most of the adults are intrudged by the dinosaur facts that have been shown up over the years such as the allosaurs and the velociraptor.Dinosaurs were a great part of our world history,and even though we may never fully understand them or why did they become extinct.But the fact remains that waliking with dinosaurs must have been amazing feat.And we all in some way would like to know more about the mystery that is dinosaurs.

Rocky Mountains
The Rocky Mountains stretch from Alaska to Mexico.Each part of the Rockies is like a diffrent world,with snow-covered peaks, summer middles grace goats and forested lower slopes,where grizzly and Black Bears roam.
Hoofing it
Rocky Mountain goats are the only large mammals naimble enough to survive on the highest peaks.The inner pets on their hoofs are soft and curved,providing a suction-like grip on stip rocks.
Both males and females have sharp horns. Males use them to fight during the mating season, when they stand beside each other and try to stab each other's flanks.
