why I think it is important to keep the Canterbury mud-fish alive and on this earth,

They are cute, wiggly and they are probably the closest thing we have is a snake in the wild in New Zealand, so we need to keep it a life and it eats the food other animals and fish do not.

Welcome to my very own blog for learning. I look forward to sharing my learning with teachers, my school, my family and friends anywhere.
