The Ant and the Dove

One hot day, an ant was seeking for some water. After walking around for a moment, she came to a spring. To reach
the spring, she had to climb up a blade of grass. While making her way up, she slipped and fell unintentionally into the water.
She could have sunk if a dove up a nearby tree had not seen her. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the dove quickly
put off a leaf from a tree and dropped it immediately into the water near the struggling ant. Then the ant moved towards the leaf
and climbed up there. Soon it carried her safely to dry ground.
Not long after at that, there was a hunter nearby who was throwing out his net towards the dove, hoping to trap it in this
way.

Blue Whale
The blue whale is not only the biggest whale living today; the blue whale is the biggest creature ever to have lived on Earth. They are
mind-bogglingly gigantic; much larger than any of the dinosaurs. Blue whales and the other ocean giants live their whole lives in seawater.
Blue whales commonly reach the colossal length of 29m, that’s roughly as long as three London red double-decker buses parked end
to end. Blue whales in the Southern Hemisphere are generally larger than those in the Northern Hemisphere and female blues are larger than
males.
The longest blue whale on record is a female measured at a South Georgia whaling station in the South Atlantic (1909); she was
33.58m. The heaviest blue whale was also a female hunted in the Southern Ocean, Antarctica, on 20 March 1947. She tipped the scales at 190
tones which is equivalent to about 30 elephants or 2500 people.

R
afflesia Arnoldi
Rafflesia Arnoldi is a rare flower that is well known because of the size of the flower's petals and the
smell of rotten meat that it gives out. That is the reason why it always called the corpse flower.
This enormous and rare flower grows in the forest of Southeast Asia, including the Philippines. Its
large flower can grow to 3 meters in diameter and weigh up to 11 kilograms. It does not have any leaves,
stem, or rootsand because of lacking chlorophyll this plant cannot photosynthesize making it a parasite, living
on other plants nutrition.
The flower has five petals red in color and has white spots, which surrounds the middle of the flower
much like a hole. At the base of the flower there is a part which has needles and contains the reproduction
parts of the flower.
Rafflesia Arnoldii reproduces with the help of flies that are attracted to the flowers smell (which
some observers say smells much like bad meat and rotten eggs mixed). The flower only lasts for five to seven
days and then dies.
