Hi Lilly!
ReplyDeleteThese are some great facts. I would love to know what the correct answers are for facts 2,4 and 5. Maybe you could find out the correct answer and include this in your blog post. It is amazing that a fish is 65 years old! I wonder how many times it nearly got caught :)
Looking forward to reading more blog posts!

Hi there Lilly,
ReplyDeleteThese facts are really interesting, aren't they? Some of them are almost too hard to believe... You're right for the first fact, the oldest aquarium fish in the world was indeed an Australian lungfish. His name was Granddad (I can tell why) and he actually lived until the old age of 95! Did you know that sharks actually have eyelids? What's even more crazier is that camels have three eyelids, wow! Starfish are not a type of fish although I don't think it makes much sense either since their name has the word "fish" in it.
Do you think you could find out more information to see if facts number 4 and 5 are true or false? There are always plenty of resources and websites you can use to help you find out more information about these animals. There world has a lot for you to discover, it's a wonderful journey out there!
Best,
Evelyn :)
