This is an animal we might see in Death Valley. This animal is a Chuckwalla. It eats the yellow flowers of the brittlebush and also eats other fruits and flowers as well as insects and leaves. It likes lava flows and rocky areas. Male chuckwallas do what appears to the human eye to be push-ups.
That looks like a cool lizard doesn't it? please post comment.

Avery: What I Learned Today
Today I learned about Hinduism. I learned four of their beliefs, Dharma, Karma, Samsara, Moksha. Dharma is the balance of life. How you keep up your job, how good you take care of your family, and all sorts of stuff like that. Karma means that if you do something bad something bad will happen to you. Of if you do something good something good will happen to you. Samsara is the circle of life. Which mainly means life after death. So when you have a lot of Karma you keep on being reborn as someone or something until all of the Karma is gone. Moksha is after Samsara. So when all of the Karma is gone you will stop living and be dead. I believe in only Dharma, Karma, and Samsara. I love learning about religions!

Mason: Hinduism

I learned about the three gods of Hinduism. Brahma is the creator. He made the earth, humans plants and birds. Vishnu is the protector. He has many avatars. Prince Rama is one of his avatars. Shiva is the destroyer. She destroys everything when Brahma is asleep. She destroys everything so that Brahma will recreate it.
