Monarch Butterfly Facts
Most predators have learned that the monarch butterfly makes a poisonous snack. The toxins from the monarch's milkweed diet have given the butterfly this defense. In either the caterpillar or butterfly stage the monarch needs no camouflage because it takes in toxins from the milkweed and is poisonous to predators. Many animals advertise their poisonous nature with bright colors...just like the monarch! (information taken from www.kidzone.ws)

We Love Rhinos!
The Asian one-horned rhino is a very good swimmer and will completely submerge itself to reach vegetation.Rhino horns are made of keratin, just like our fingernails, and grow throughout their lifetime.
Indian and Javan rhinos have one horn.
Rhinos have poor eyesight.
Black rhinos can run up to 40 miles per hour.
Rhinos may look indestructible, but their skin is actually quite sensitive, especially to sunburn and biting insects, which is why they like to wallow in the mud.

Make a Dog Toy!
This idea was taken from Real Simple Magazine and seems to be a good way to recycle old dish towels.
What you Need: Three laundered dish towels and scissors.
What You Do:
1) Cut an inch-wide strip from one short end of two towels.
2) Bunch each of the three towels and use one strip to tie them firmly together at one end. Tightly braid them, then tie the other end with the second strip. Ta Dah!!!!
