DUIKER

by Grace June 11, 2025

The duiker looks like a deer because it has horns but the horns are not sharped the same, next it has hooves and a short tail. Duikers are light brown to grayish brown. Duikers have big ears  and black lines under its head.

Duikers can live in a  lot of places but most live in savannas, but sometimes they live in forests, woodlands, grasslands, and mountains, Duikers are native to Africa.

Duikers are adopted to live in many places in Africa, duikers are camouflage masters, their coat is a light brown to grayish brown. The brown hides well in forests and light brown blends well in the savannas.

If duikers sense danger they can freeze or lie down motionless to avoid detection.

The word duiker comes from the Afrikaan language for diver. They are known for their diving escape.

Anza-Borrego Desert State Park

By Gracee

May 2-4 2025

It was fun. 2 hour drive. Rocky and curvy.

Slept in car. I had 5 bags, including a stuffed animals’ bag.

We tried to go to Palm Trail, but we gave up then we explored a lot of different places like the Badlands. A few hours later it was lunchtime. We ate ramen and tuna. Then we went to this Cactus Loop Trail, which we also gave up.

Then we headed to Wind Cave Trail. We made it even with just a regular van. Next I got a junior ranger badge at the visiting center, and then we camped. It was VERY windy while we were setting up the tent. While I was watching Maleficent our tent broke, so my dad kept going outside and fixing it. Most people evacuated.

Next day, it was really fun, and we actually got to go to the Palm Trail.

It was a 3-hour-long hike for our family. Oh, we saw an oasis and palm trees on top of the mountain in the desert.

Then we went towards the national park visiting center to buy souvenirs. I bought a water bottle and the water bottle holder thing. It was starting to rain, so we went home early. We were supposed to go to the Slot. While we were driving, we saw something like a windstorm, so we were glad we left earlier than we planned because the windstorm was the way we were heading if we were going to the slot.

Soon, we will visit Anza-Borrego State Park again.

Badlands and Windcave are unpaved roads in the desert.

Blue dragon

I made a puppet dragon because I saw so many my fyp (for YOU page) and they look so cool, so I tried making one, and that’s it.

Did you see a starfish eating something?

I/Sooyoung/Grace’s mom did not know which food starfish eat. Today, I just know that shrimp is one of the foods that starfish eat. Google says that they feed on coral, sponges, clams, oysters, sand dollars, and mussels because these move slowly or do not move at all. Of course, starfish eat injured fish as well.
