6 Orchid's World of Nonsense?

Introducing the Rodents!

Rodents are mammals and over 40% of the world's mammals are rodents. There are more than 2000 species of rodents including the squirrel, mouse, rat and chinchilla (see picture on the right).

Most rodents are tiny and have two sharp front teeth that keep growing. These two teeth are known as incisors and are used for cutting wood, biting through the skin of fruit or for defence. The incisors must be kept worn down by gnawing (biting or chewing continuously will produce friction which helps wear away the teeth). Hence, you will find that creatures such as mice, rats and even hamsters seem to love to chew at things.

Rodents reproduce rapidly and are sometimes regarded as pests. Other than rats, another type of rodent that is not very well-liked is the gopher. Gophers live underground by digging tunnels and they can be found in North America. They are treated as pests as they often feed on farmers' crops.

Here's a funny cartoon clip about the life of a gopher. Enjoy!

Teaching us are two ugly and fearsome monsters, Miss Stephanie Ho and Mrs Sharon Toh. One can kill you simply by staring at you and the other uses her loud booming voice as a murder weapon. When we do not behave well or do our work, these monsters.... [IT'S TOO TERRIBLE TO SAY WHAT THEY DO TO US.]
