Describe Your Game

My game would include more than one animal , and more than one place . So I would have many different backgrounds . For instance , in the first scene i would have like a map but not exactly a map , anyways it would have buttons saying Desert , Sea , Antarctica and Forest . You would click in the button where the first place you would like to visit . Lets say you choose Antarctica well , in my image i see my game like with an " icy " background . What I'm trying to say by " icy " is that it would be like Antarctica with the colors white and blueish . It would basically have that look of Antarctica . The animals that i would have in this scene is obviously penguins . The objects that in would hide in this scene are , penguins . By hiding penguins and you looking for them would help this other penguin look for company . Another object that I would hide is food . Like fish i would make the penguins search under water for their food , which is obviously fish . That would be the scene of Antarctica .
          Now lets say that you decide to click on the category that says Sea . That scene would look "watery" . But it would be in water not outside of water and i would also add detail , like plants that live underwater , like seaweed . The animal that i would use is a whale . The objects that i would hide is their babies and also food . You would have to guide the whale to be able to find those objects and make her or him feel good . I would include a scale that is from bad to okay to good . Your goal is to get the whale to be good ! That's basically what i would do to my game . But I would make more than one scene . The total number of scenes i would have would be 5 and each one of them would be different .

Fact 1 : The downy under portions of feathers traps a layer of air against their skin .

Texas Endangered Species

Endangered species are those consider to be at risk of extinction . Endangered  species have a small population meaning loss of habitats , hunters , disease , climate change ..etc , all of this factors cause animals to die . For instance in Texas there is 145 threatened and endangered animals , there is also 29 plants endangered .

Habitat destruction is one of our big sources our animals are endangered . Our state is currently changing really quickly which gives our species less time to react and adjust to new circumstances . If its not the cause of habitat loss that animals are consider to be at risk of extinction ,  then there's plenty of others like i mentioned before . 

Everyone in this state should react to this because animals and plants are living things just like us . We need to help out and make animals not be at risk of extinction because if we don't make a change then in the future we wont have as many animals . For the cause that we ignored the fact that this animals and plants are endangered . One of the most important ways to help threatened plants and animals survive is to protect their habitats permanently in national parks .
